I have not done many quilts but I use Sharon's method and hand quilt. I taped pieces of backing onto the boards so that my quilt and backing fabric do not slip. They adhere very nicely. You can buy prefinished white boards at the lumber yard....so you don't have to do any "protect the fabric from wood" thing.
This basted quilt has been moved around about a zillion times from chair to "hide it when company comes." Several unknowing guests have grabbed it as a blankie when they got chilled usually with my needle still in it.
I have experienced some small puckers on the back but think that is because I am not an experienced quilter and I must pull the backing when I am quilting. My experienced quilting buddy has assured me that the puckers will wash out when my quilt is washed.
I LOVE Sharon's tutorial on her herringbone method. (I must admit that I have to go back and rewatch it every time I finish a project. (Obviously I don't finish my projects very quickly---but they sure look good!).
