If this is mounted Wrong, please let me know

Not having any quilting relatives of that ilk, or being able to find anything on line, I just kind of went with my instinct and copied what I do on the Long Arm.
So if anyone knows something different let me know. Thanks ( I can't believe it took almost a full day to figure this out. (and move the furniture, and clean the dust bunnies etc.) |
What a beautiful dear Jane!
It looks like it should work just fine. There directions on loading a 3 pole frame on Hinterberg.com. Those directions have the top rolled on the back roller along with the batting, and the backing rolled up on the middle pole. However, I see no reason that this won't work just as well. Good luck!

This looks right to me. You must have the top on the middle pole so that you can advance the quilt toward you, opposite of the way we normally advance the quilt on a longarm frame.

Very nice dear Jane. I have never used a frame.

It looks like this might work, but it is very different from my Grace Z44 frame instructions. I have leader cloths. They are especially useful when I get to the end of the quilt, so it is easy to quilt right up to the edge. I don't think I could do it without leader cloths. There is a good video demonstration on the Grace Company website for the three pole frame. Before you start quilting, satisfy yourself that it is correctly loaded so that there are no surprises along the way--especially when you get to the end. Your quilt is beautiful. What an heirloom you will have when it is all hand quilted.

I have to rethink this baby. That's for tomorrow.
Thanks to all of your inputs! |

Looking at your picture it looks different than I load. I pin my back and batting to the front rod, I the pin the other end of the backing to the rod close to your wall, make sure when doing that step you go under your middle rod. Roll up your backing then feed batting under middle rod and let it float over third rod no need to roll batting, now pin other end of quilt top to middle rod and roll towards front. Quilt from front rolling as you go. Hope this helps .
Later: Just looked at your picture again...really, all you need to do is unroll your back roller and take the batting out and re-roll it with backing only. Should be able to do that in a jiffy. Happy quilting! Your top is amazing!!! :) |
Go to grace and look up their video on loading a 3 rail frame. If it isn't correct, you will not be able to go to the edge on the bottom.
