Some longarm machines on the frame quilt "in the well". The quilt is mounted differently on the frame--on mine, the pieces are over the top of the rollers and on them, they are under the rollers--they roll the opposite of mine.

What I learned in a FM class is not to roll your quilt but to create a "well" with your quilt by kind of gathering it up around (sort of like the hole you put in mashed potatoes) and quilt in the well.

Thanks, ladies! I have an internet friend with the same long arm as me and she was asking me. I had never heard of it before, but I KNEW someone here would have an answer that made sense. We both googled it and didn't find anything...but I know Crafty Bear is a champ at hunting down anything on the internet, so I'm looking forward to what she comes up with.
You are the best!!! :thumbup: :thumbup:
