SoozieQ & Quiltngolfer I've been researching the Simply 16 for months now, any advice on how difficult it is to get the right tension as far as the tightness of the quilt on the Little Foot frame and did you have previous experience with using a long arm. Or any other helpful hints about the Simply 16 would be greatly appreciated.

I always have used spray baste and sandwiched quilt on portable tables pushed together, I just pin the outer edges. The clamps that come with the machine are perfect and its quick to move on the next area to be quilted.I would totally recommend it
