when you pin the backing to the canvas, do you first remove the canvas? and then replace it onto the leader? or do you pin while the canvas is on the leader?

i don't take one quilt off to work on another. i work on one until i finish and then remove it. do you think there's a reason for me to need to have an additional canvas? i have the velcro and leader that the lizzie came with and just pin now.

since you float the batting and the top, do you have the velcro and canvas on the belly bar as well? i don't float the top. i tried it one time and it got away from me. i never figured out what happened.

also, how wide/long are your leaders? my poles are 120" and if i push the trolley all the way to one end of the frame, it still sits under one end of the leader and prevents it from lying straight when i'm setting up.
