In this video I cover the basics of loading your quilt onto your frame. The setup I use is the Stretch Frame and Voyager 17 (V17) by Hinterberg. I specifically cover how to pin your backing, how to layer your batting and quilt top, how to baste your quilt sandwich together. The loading method I prefer is the “floating” method where the batting and the quilt top are floating atop the backing fabric. I show you how I load my layers on my frame. This video is continued in the video: “Longarm Machine Quilting: Free-Motion
I love how easy you make it to load a quilt on, I certainly see some improvement to the method I have been using…thanks!
This was a very helpful video. I hope to find more from the same teacher. I have added to my favorites. I’ve taken two classes from the store where I purchased my frame and never once did they go over this. Thanks a bunch.
