I am with the others who suggest finding a large area to baste your quilt sandwich.....my suggestions would be a church classroom, LQS, maybe a library reading room, conference room at work.....as long as you explain what you are doing, there may be lots of places/people who will be willing to help....I do mine on top of our 8 ft. Pool table!....I am also one of those who glue baste-after trying glue just once I was hooked!
