This is a site where they tell you how to make a wooden quilting frame or loom. Bthey say to baste first.  My mon doesn't. She just bases or pin one and of all three pieces to the frame, then rolls the backing on the other stretcher bar and let's the batting and top just hang down.  It works well and

A few years ago mom, my two sisters and I actually hand quilted my sister's quilt on it. I will try to find the picture and post it.
