The only review of this add-on seems to indicate that it's only for smaller quilts. If you have a larger one you still have to baste the quilt first.

Does it still require you to baste the quilt sandwich before loading it? That's one of the downsides to a LittleFoot frame - you can't avoid the basting process.

On a frame long enough to fit the entire quilt, you load the back, batting, and top individually, so no, you don't have to (and generally don't want to) pre-baste.
It sounds like this accessory for the Little Foot frame also allows you to do that if your quilt fits the width of the frame, where without it you have to pre-baste those small quilts as well. It does not sound like it would work at all for larger quilts that are wider than the Little Foot frame (and would have to come off for those)
