Loading a Longarm for Beginners - Urban Elementz

[@rebeccafoster-faith688]

Dear Reader -I know what you're thinking. "1 hour to load a quilt top??! I'll watch this other 15 min video" Wrong answer. This video has EVERYTHING. Yes you should watch this one, because it will answer all of your questions at the same time. The helpful chapter markings let you go back to where you need. Excellent resource. Thank you for making it.

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

Thank you SO much for your wonderful comment! We are so happy this video was everything you needed.

[@karlacayer6350]

BRAVO! Your joy and your time and your money! Everyone and their uncle suddenly has ten quilts they would love for you to “quickly” long arm!!!

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

Thank you!

I love your soapbox!

[@brendafoley6995]

Thanks for the wonderful instructions.. had my Longarm 3 weeks now. Finally feel I'm done practicing. You helped me get mine loaded. I have 29 quilts to get quilted!

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

How exciting! Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

[@dorrisdale6269]

I love watching videos about loading the longarm. I always learn something.

[@bkptroy]

Thank you for sticking with us through the heat.

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

I wash all my fabrics even before piecing. I want all of it to shrink before I make my quilts or garments. I only have three quilts that need quilting on the longarm. I have been quilting on my regular sewing machine mostly straight lines up until now. I made a quilt that I want to outline butterflies on the squares and I just couldn't see how to do that easily. Then I made two quilts that are so large, that the thought of doing them on my sewing machine just was too much. So I bought a longarm and am in the learning stages of doodling on that plain piece of fabric you talked about. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and expertise. It is so helpful for me in this process. And I am sorry you had to work in that heat without your air conditioning.

[@bkptroy]

I have heard if your always doing what your comfortable with, your not progressing. I think there is truth in that. Three quilts is not too much pressure. We would love to see how they come out.

[@stitchinglonestar6362]

Thank you for this video. I haven’t found one specific to this machine and this set up that explains it so well. This is my setup minus the digital component and you have cleared up many questions for me!! So many videos neglect the set up and go right into the quilting. I really needed this step by step demonstration. THANK YOU 🥰

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

We are glad we could be there for you. If you have other stumbling blocks let us know and we will add it to the topics to cover.

[@simplyquiltingwithnancysanders]

Thanks for the point you made about not letting others steal your joy in what you are doing. I had the same experience about including music in my videos. I don't do it to fill space, but just because I love to use it as an accent, but I may have had it a little too loud at first, and had some complaints about it. Now I try to keep the music low and use the voice over feature, and no more complaints so far. Its a fine line line to keep viewers watching and do your thing in the way that you love to do it. And yes, I have to turn off my AC when I make a video! 😅

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

Thanks for the great tips, Nancy. We will have to try this out! Why do AC units have to be so noisy???

[@CraftAddictedWendy]

I so appreciate that you talked through the reasons why you prefer the steps you take. We can avoid the bad experiences you’ve encountered just by listening to your sage advice. And no, you’re not at all grumpy! You’re brilliant and you know your craft! Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge with us … and I’m blown away that you recorded this THREE 😲 times!

Thank you, I love your videos, I like the way you talk.

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

It took me a long time to be able to listen to my own voice on playback. If your referring more to the content, that has to do with having taught in person for a long time, and knowing that everyone is at a different level and I love that part. It means we are still growing, together.

[@coribellanoche]

As a relatively new quilter I have insisted to do all my quilting on the domestic machine so I would learn the basics of FMQ. Now that I am making more quilt tops I have found that there are not enough hours in the day to do it all myself. I have resorted to sending some of my qilts to "long armers." I was impressed by the cost and wondered why it cost as much as it does. Watching this video and others has made me appreciate all the work that goes into having a quilt done by a "long armer." Thank you for taking the pains of making these videos. Greetings from Rapid City, South Dakota.

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

Thank you for sharing! Longarmers do a lot of work and we are thankful for all of them!

[@shellyculver4239]

Ahhhh this is a breath of fresh air to me!! I appreciate your “grumpiness”. It’s direct & from the heart. I thank you for the detailed instructions. I’ve been watching others who just throw the quilt & backing on saying no need to find center & I’ve done them, but felt it wasn’t an intentional procedure in order to produce the best outcome. I like your way & will follow it in the future. I only have 2 unquilted tops. One is a memory quilt for my niece & the other is a vintage top purchased from another quilter who frequents antique stores & thrift stores for mature flimsies. I’m now looking forward to both thanks to you & your approach.

This is the first time I've seen your videos and the first time I have ever responded to a video and trust me I've watched alot of them. I had to tell you, that I love your straight forward, no nonsense approach. I thoroughly enjoyed the informative video and bless your heart, I appreciate your sacrifice for comfort to make the video its best in regards to sound. I kept thinking, this poor guy needs air conditioning and here you have it . I did not think you were grumpy and I certainly do not think you're selfish after all, you took the time and suffered the heat to make this video for us. BTW, I just started quilting because I had so much fabric from sewing over the years that I wanted to use up my scraps so I'm learning to quilt on my practice quilts that I made from scraps. Never spent a dime on fabric. I'll be watching your videos going forward and will subscribe...another thing I've never done is subscribe to videos. Thank you

Over the last couple of years, I have assembled over 20 quilt tops and several wall hangings. I purchased a Bernina Q24 a year ago and was struggling to get meaningful and easy info on how to operate it. Then I came across your instructional videos and the info you presented was exactly what I was looking for. I now have more confidence and have taken my sample ‘scribble’ piece off and loaded one of my many quilt tops to do manually. I do have the QMatic on my set up but I’m not ready to use it yet.

I started quilting 3 years ago and now have 9 quilts in line to be quilted. I brought a new to me longarm recently but I'm still in the process of practicing. I love the idea of the leader clamps. I have never heard of them but may have to purchase them. I have problems with my leaders getting twisted unevenly,, which I know is operator error. Seems like those leader clamps would help that.

[@bkptroy]

Once you get into the swing, you will know those ten out in no time. Enjoy the process.

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

I got mine from Quilters Apothecary. If they do not have them in stock, just let them know you want them and they will get them back in stock. They are a wonder, and I wouldn't want to work without them. I use about four or five per leader, so 15 or 16 isn't too many as far as I am concerned. worth their weight in gold.

I floated it because that had worked for me for smaller quilts... not so much this time.

[@debbidunn639]

I have over 35 tops. I got my long arm this summer so I’ve only long-armed a couple of quilts so far. Thanks for this video! I’m curious about the amount of tension on the back. Is there a right amount of tension or is it mostly personal preference? I ask because I had problems with my first quilt. Maybe I had it too tight. The second one I I left a little looser and didn’t have those issues.

[@bkptroy]

This is a tricky one to answer, because I am not sure of the reasons that people get different results. I believe it is down to the machine and system. I had mine looser in the beginning and I had wrinkles and pleats in the backing, so I started making mine more taunt. I get good results that way. The bottom line is, anyone/everyone has advice but it is not all going to work for you. Try the tips and see what best results you get and make notes. What is ultimately right is what works best for you.

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

This is an unanswerable question in part. I know for a fact that I keep very tight tension on my quilt, but others have issues doing that. I think it comes down to more than just tension, but also setup, batting, machine and so on. In the end, you can watch several methods, test them, and see what works for you. I just know if I don't keep it all tight, I get wrinkles and puckers sewn into the quilt, and I dont seem to have an issue when it is tight like a drum.

[@tammiemiller6249]

Great video, I will pass on the info I received this morning, the small leader clamps you use are no longer available from quilters apothecary, I was disappointed because I thought that would be a great tool!!

Scrim side down ❤

[@reenafleischhauer1140]

So what do you do if the sides don’t measure the same? As in your example where one side measures 60 and the other side measures 63?

[@bkptroy]

Well, it depends on whose it is. If it were mine, I would remove the border that was incorrect, and make it fit. You would determine that from measuring the "body" of the quilt along the center, both horizontally and vertically. Adding the size of the border should indicate what the correct size should have been. One of the quilts in our list in me putting on a mitered border, and I cut them before I add them to the quilt, so they cannot grow. People often cut long strips of fabric and just feed it through the machine over the body of the quilt, but the feed dogs will Ruffle the side closest to the feed dogs making that side much longer in the process.

[@sasquatchkit5223]

Do you wash the top?

[@urbanelementzdesigns]

I wash all of my fabric before I make any quilt, unless it is specialty fabric like silk dupioni. I would never wash a quilt top unless it had somehow become soiled. Washing a top would result in all of the neatly pressed seams becoming disorganized and all of those seams would also fray, and create a mess in the dryer. I do sometimes wash a quilt after it is bound, but only on a hand cycle.

[@sasquatchkit5223]

Thank you. Depending on the fabric I also wash prior to piecing. Like you said everyone has their own thoughts. Just got my Longarm and have been nervous about using it.
