Thanks. Yes. I do that. The real problem I have is quilting away from me going from bottom left to top right. But I'm going to try working on top right down to bottom left, as I can go straight down and down from top left to bottom right fairly well. The comments have given me encouragement to work at being able to use this frame set up. As I said, I think it's fun to quilt this ol timey way.
