the sliders make the whole top of the area alot eaiser for the fabric to move; gloves help hold onto the fabric so that you don't have to grip it. sometimes the tension has to be changed. Here is a link to one site that helps alot; this is her way and there are so many ways. I really like this vinyl idea; a whole lot cheaper. The key to all aspects of quilting is to keep on learning new things and that's what's great about this board.
