I move the frame. There are lots of post here on the board about the Flynn frame, which is where I got my idea. If you search that, you'll see a lot of people who tried it and didn't like it. I'm one of those determined people, and I made myself do it. Now, I'm dying to do it some more. You can't do a large motif area, and as you go, and roll up the finished part, you lose a bit of sewing area. But it works great, and I am so happy not to have to send it out. And my husband is happy that I'm not asking for a long arm...
