    Default Using the Grace Company Numbered Cloth Leaders

    I purchased the cloth leaders for the Grace Pinnacle frame, and I am not certain what the numbers on the leaders are used for. Can anyone help me out?

    I don't know about the Grace leaders ... but the ones I have are so that when I put them on my frame I know where center is and can then match how far out I am on either side while quilting.

    i would say it is so that you can center your backing and quilt top

    I have them also as they came with my frame, they are to help when centering your pieces on when loading but when I put a real tape measure to them they must have been stretched as they where not correct. I ended up taking a sharpies and marking my own reference points and bought the quick zip system. I love it as I can pin a quilt on while watching tv and if I don't like what I am working on all I have to do is zip it off and load another without having to undo all those finger sticking lilttle pins...lol
