I do the basic thing but use my ironing table. I can turn the sandwich to get all of it basted. I press the glue dry as I go. Sometimes the glue will shrink as it dries so I use steam to loosen it. It doesn't shrink again. I don't make quilts bigger then a large throw anymore so it works fine. I use a glue roller applicator to apply the glue. It rolls on thin and even. I have perfected my method that I don't dread basting a quilt at all.
