For those who don't have a large space for basting a quilt sandwich together, you can have a longarmer baste the sandwich for you. No crawling around on the floor, etc. Another option is to use a no-baste frame, if you can fit one somewhere and just store it away when not in use. Even if you want to lap quilt by hand or FMQ by machine, you can use the no-baste frame just to get the sandwich together, basted and ready to go, right? Just my thoughts...
