She bastes on her LA, stitches about every 4 inches, and charges me $20 for up to a queen size quilt. I have all my quilt tops basted by her even if I decide to let her do them later on. It keeps the backing with the quilt and ready to just pull off the shelf when I'm in the mood to quilt. I learned how to use the John Flynn frame and I use that a lot for my smaller quilts.
