Question for Long Arm Quilters.......
I am quilting a Quilts of Valor top and the backing has been pieced with a 42" piece centered between two narrower pieces. Should I roll the backing onto the leaders with seams going from leader to leader (top to bottom) or with seams going from side to side? I've loaded from top to bottom but have noticed some significant gathering at the seams as I rolled it on which occurred to me that it could cause problems down the road. Any suggestion???
