I have an 18" Innova (back when I bought it my options were 18" and 26") and a 12" block on point requires me to do some rolling back and forth to complete a block - do the top half first, roll do the bottom, move over and do the bottom, roll, do the top, move over. Or I create a design that makes it easy to do the top half of all of the blocks before I roll, then do all the bottoms. I generally do custom quilting, so I am used to lots of starts and stops (with tied and buried ends). Innova now has a 22" that I would love to have, just for the ease of borders, but I have found that it is just as easy to do the top border, middle and bottom border, then rotate the quilt on the frame to do the side borders - no stopping and very easy. Have a blast dancing with your new longarm!!
