    Care and Use Quilting Tips: - Be Careful not to sew too close to the edge, to prevent hitting the Bungee Clamps, or running off the edge of the quilt. Also, if you are using side leaders, avoid accidentally stitching the leader to your quilt. - If your quilt will fit onto your frame length-wise attach your quilt’s fabric to the rails along it’s length.

    This will be the line to which you attach your fabric layer. 7: Center your cloth leader lengthwise along the rail. Using Grace’s Fabri-FastTM System, take a piece of plastic tubing (cut to the appropriate length), and, holding your cloth leader to the slot (lining up the dashed line), press the tubing over the leader and into the slot.
