I like to turn my quilts for the side borders. I have a zipper system on my leaders and float all my tops. Only the backing gets attached to the leaders with a stapler that turns the ends out instrad of in like when you staple paper. Pull the zippers off the backing and staple onto the sides. Sometimes if I'm doing SID I go over more of the quilt then go back and fill in. But I'm like the others and mostly work top to bottom.
