Excellent video, I did attend classes but having the video to refresh my mind is wonderful. My Amara and frame will be delivered next week and I’m so excited!
Wow, I just love your demonstrations! I am new to all this and I can actually understand what you are doing. I am so anxious to go load my second quilt. Now my next goal is to learn designs other than just meandering. My machine also has a pro stitcher which Plan to go to some classes. Thank you so much!
Best video ever nice a slow great ideas , thank you, what happens when you are done quilting, tips, options, square it up ? How? Lol sorry just got a hq long arm and I am over the moon happy! Thanks again!
It keeps saying I am responding as Michele Simonich-my daughter? She doesn't sew and doesn't use my laptop so not sure why. But.... in process of ordering my HQ and loved this video. Can't wait to get started. Carolyn Milne
Thankyou for the tutorial . Mine should be coming in a few days. I have a question, do you have any options if your clients quilt may be a little bigger than your poles.
Hello; new to longarming so sorry if this is a silly question. Does it matter which direction the leader pins are facing? I think it was suggested to have the sharp ends facing away from the center so that when you smooth the quilt top and or backing as you roll the poles up, you don't catch yourself with the sharp ends and bleed over your quilt. I see you have the sharp ends pointing to the center of the quilt. Just making sure I'm doing things correctly. Thanks!!
You can put the pins which ever direction you like. The very end pins should be double weaved and pointing to the center to really hold the fabric in place though.
WHAT is the advantage/disadvantage of using the standard load vs. the Clear View load? In other words, Why would you use one load over the other? I'm not getting the reason for each way of loading.
Hey Nancy - thank you so much for asking this. The reason for loading with the Clear View - is for easier use of rulers. With the quilt loaded in clear view - the rulers can clear the front of the frame. I hope this helps.
