I agree with the above explanations. I too have little space for this. I have tried the attaching them to the wall and then I used my kitchen table. I have found the table method works best for me. I just find the center line of the quilt verically and and work on one side at a time just moving the quilt a little at a time. I also have discovered the basting spray works best for me. Yes, it does smell really bad so running a fan to help dispurse the smell is helpful, also the spray is highly flammable so make sure youre away from flames while using it. Pinning it works well too but I just found that I really like to easy of the spray and you save time this way. Hope this helps
