Yesterday I did my first pantograph on my longarm. Well, it didn't go as well as I had hoped. I had trouble when I would go to a new row. I couldn't get it in the right place for that row. Any advice? Thanks

when you advance you need to pick a spot on the panto for registration-put needle down and slowly advance til the laser is on the co-ordinating spot on the panto. hope this helps.easier to show you than type the words.

Watch both of them in this order as one video leads into the next.
Even though this for a gammil. stitching a pantograph is the same....these are my go to videos.

Those youtube videos helped me figure it out as well. I read thru Linda Taylor's book so many times, but couldn't really understand about the registration marks...watching it being done on the videos made it really clear.
