How do you put on leaders for a quilting frame?

Question

I got the first one right, the one that rolls in the arm of the machine. I have a Tin Lizzie and can' t figure out which direction to put the leaders on and have studdied the directions that came with the machine and a couple of sites on the internet and can't figure it out. I need clear instructions on how to attach the leaders to the #2 and #3 bars as it dosen't have a bar for the batting.

Answer 1

I would assume your leaders would be the same set-up as my APQS Millenium. The quilt top attaches to the #2 bar (slightly higher than the #3). The leader rolls over the top of the bar toward you, so that when the quilt top is pinned on, it rolls under the bar.

The #3 leader wraps in the opposite direction, so when the backing is pinned, it rolls over the top of bar #3 and under bar #2. The batting hangs freely between them.

Answer 2

you may purchase quilting frames on line, also at more beneficial effective conceal shows and at some sewing shops. Smaller, hand held quilting frames might want to nicely be provided at some craft or fabrics shops. once you're searching for the massive kind, it really is nicely worth it to bypass to the massive conceal shows to seem at them in man or woman. once you've were given someone accessible round, they could also be made quite easily.

Answer 3

If you bought it from a quilt shop or sewing store, have them help you. Are you sure everything is there? I don't have one, but were you planning on getting lessons on this with your purchase? Definitely track down some one who is familiar with this brand through a website if you don't have a local resource.
