Sooo glad I found this! I have had my Amara a bit over a year-some things are still a challenge. This helped me! I will look for more of your videos! Thanks so much!

Great explanation! I’m going to use your instructions on all my quilts now. I like your drag/drop without dropping the needle in the quilt and moving the machine. Thank you!!

@ericanater8641 Год назад

I’m so new to the quilting world and I just bought my first long arm and you explain things so great for me to understand. Thank you I will continue to follow you on this technic

@ldstamps1 Год назад

This is fabulous! I’ve tried several different methods to keep my quilt square but this one tops them all. Thank you!

Yay!!! It has saved me more times than I can count!

@sharonberman2384 Год назад

Thank you for a very informative video. Never saw the need for quilting space before and I will be using it now, as well as your method for drag and drop. I've been using Prostitcher for 6 years so an old dog can learn new tricks! 😊

@BeASong.0603 Год назад

Loved your video. I have never had Quilt Space explained before. Game changer!

@angiesanswers91 Год назад

Thank you Janice! I just love Quilting Space soooo much! Happy Quilting! ~Angie

@kathleengraveman345 Год назад

Thank you so much for a wonderful presentation! I have always struggled with using the drop and drag with the needle down to advance the row. This is a much better way and more exact way to do it!

Thank you so much!!!

@patsalisbury5754 2 года назад

I am so glad to know how to use quilting space. Thanks

@angiesanswers91 2 года назад

You’re welcome!! I love it and use it for every quilt!

@nancyg1786 Год назад

These are very clear and easy to follow instructions. I've always used a tape measure and measure from the right frame to the quilt top and left frame to the quilt top make sure my quilt is lined up for basting but quilting space will be so much easier! I also love the drag and drop method using the vertical channel lock as well. Thank you so much!

@cathymontowski1263 Год назад

Thanks for explaining the quilting space and the drag & drop. Great idea with the curtain rods. I use yard sticks on the sides if they are sagging.

@karengreenhow7640 Год назад

I love this explanation and learned a much easier way to drag and drop!!! Thank you so much!

Angie, thank you so much for this video. I am struggling with my new Amara with Pro-Stitcher-I keep running into the bar with each row. I think using this may be able to help me. Thank you for showing the screen and what each function does.

@chrismimidas9133 2 года назад

Brilliant, thank you, I will be using this method on my next quilt! PS Loving my new zipper system! 🤩

@angiesanswers91 2 года назад

@terriheiser1457 Год назад

Awesome video! I had no idea how to use quilting space nor its benefits. Definitely going to give it a try.

@angiesanswers91 Год назад

Thank you so much Terri!

@suzygillett1719 Год назад

You are such a great instructor. You make everything make sense. Excellent video and I totally agree with the other comment about the zipper system. I can’t believe the two quilt stores I frequent had never heard of them..I gave them all the info as they do a lot of long arming for clients. This has changed my whole long arm game so much. Kudos to whoever figured this out. I did stitch grosgrain ribbon on each other half of the zippers so I wouldn’t be pinning into the leaders. I did a different color for each zipper. Just love this system so much and will not ever use any other method.

@angiesanswers91 Год назад

Hi Suzy, Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for the kind comments! :) My mom Sue came up with the zipper system in 2000! I also can’t imagine life without either! Thank you sooooo much for helping share to your local shops! We really appreciate that! Have a great day! Angie

@denahillis5201 2 года назад

You are so Awesome!! I needed help like this so bad! You have answered a lot of questions. I am loving my zippers!! I have arthritis and the red snappers were very hard for me to use. Thanks again

@sandrapresley5949 Год назад

Great job! Thank you!

@ChrisQuilts Год назад

Thanks for showing a great use of the "Quilting Space" feature that came with the latest update. Love the pin in the quilted row tip, that is very helpful as I have rolled just a bit too far before and had to back up, this will help prevent that. I appreciate your sharing so much with us.

@angiesanswers91 Год назад

You are welcome! Thank you for watching!

@marilynloveridge8494 Год назад

Have you ever written out these steps? I need a step by step when I first learn something. Thank you so much for this video. I love how you line up the quilt

@angiesanswers91 Год назад

Hi Marilyn, We do have an edge to edge video that comes with written instructions for the entire process! The video is on our website stores.longarmconnection.com/pro-stitcher-edge-to-edge-basics-class-on-usb/ and is $39.99 The video even covers how to fix a thread break and cropping out an edge to edge! The instructions are 28 pages. :)

@dianelinker6305 Год назад

I’m assuming that with a large quilt the quilting space gets smaller as the quilt is quilted and rolled up on the take up bar. How do you know when to reset? Every roll or less?

@marilynt1 Год назад

I loved this video. Thank you. You asked for other things we want to know. On one of the prostitcher FB groups someone wanted an explanation for using Record and Mark for doing stitch in the ditch. I found one for using Trace Area to recommend but could not find one for Record/mark. What I was not sure of was if you use Record before and after mark or not. Would love your take on this. Once you have done that-how about "move"? Thanks again. I feel so much more confident. I still watch your zipper video each time I need to load a quilt-especially the squaring up video.

@angiesanswers91 Год назад

Hi Marilyn, Thank you! Those are great video ideas!! I can do that. Make sure you look at Adam Sew Fun. He’s got a lot of videos for Pro too!

@marilynt1 Год назад

@@angiesanswers91 Happy New Year. I'm working on my 4th or 5th custom quilt. I'm doing pretty well with the inside of the quilt but I can not understand borders. I've watched Kim Sandberg's video on fitting the first side and understand the use of align, area and border skew. Even with Simulator I can't figure out how to get the same size and spacing on the bottom that I used on the top. It just seems beyond my understanding. Can you help?

@angiesanswers91 Год назад

@@marilynt1 Happy New Year to you too!! Borders are very tricky and not all the same! I don’t do a lot of custom, I mostly do E2E. If I am going to custom then I use what you do the Area, Align and Skew. Make sure you DON’T Baseline after the skew. If you try to do a new Area, Align and skew at the bottom it won’t work. When you baseline a Skew, it locks those changes and size. Then if the new border at the bottom is slightly different the Pro cant Skew something that’s already been Skewed. Try that and let me know!

@marilynt1 Год назад

@@angiesanswers91 Thank you Angie. I think I'm getting it. I just have to learn to trust Pro-Stitcher!! Almost finished a quilt I'd like to share with you when it is finished.

@davidsfake 2 года назад

Angie, I might have put my question on the wrong video by mistake. At the 1:30 mark, you show the top is wider in some areas than in other areas. How do you baste that area which is wider than the narrow parts?

@angiesanswers91 2 года назад

That makes more sense now!! I try my best to ease in that wider part of the top and keep it lined up on the black vertical line. This is a lot easier if you have poly batting with a little bit of a loft. That poly will help take up some of that “extra” fabric. If you have a Glide foot (the plastic cup foot) that also helps to move the top over and not have it tuck or fold. This is harder to do with a cotton or flat batting. Hope that helps!

@davidsfake 2 года назад

Thanks! I understand now!!
