In this video I show you how I baste my quilt tops on my longarm frame. This video is Part 2 in a tutorial series of how to load your quilts on a longarm frame. For part 1 on loading the quilt click here:http://youtu.be/28pS90e2-jI

I no longer use side clamps when loading or basting my quilts on the longarming frame. I just find that I don't need it because I roll my rollers until my quilt backing is pretty tight but not too taut. I also use straight pins to help keep the quilt top in place as I baste. I like to start my basting stitches at the top center of my quilt top and stitch it down to one edge. Then I return to the center and baste in the other direction. I also baste down the vertical sides as far as I can go.

I buy my magnets from Leslie & Curt at Finishing Touches Quilting Studio: http://bit.ly/KWDy4s

The longarm setup I have in this video is a Voyager 17 on a Hinterberg Stretch Frame. Both items can be seen here:
