Rolling your fabric
• As you roll forward, the quilt will accumulate on the front rail. Be sure to raise the Pole Mount
Ends slightly as needed, so that the bottom of the rolled up fabric stays about 1/16” about the
sewing machine base. Failing to do so will cause your Carriage Assembly to roll less smoothly.
The Four-Inch Principle
• If you are using a sewing machine with a regular size throat, you will want to follow the four-inch
principle: Limit any quilting pattern to four inches or less from front to back.
• The Grace Sturdy-Lite actually gives you about 11” of stroke, but because of a limited throat size,
and because the fabric will eventually roll up on the take-up rail, further decreasing space, you will
want to keep patterns to a 4” limit.
