If you are using a hoop, you start in the middle and work your way out.
If you are using a frame, you start at one end and work your way towards the other end...rolling the quilted part up as you go.
With my 3-roll frame, when I roll it to the next area to be quilted, I still start in the middle of that new area and work out to the side...go back to the middle and work out towards the other side. Some people just work right to left or left to right all the way across the quilt...it's just a personal preference when using a frame.
