Advancing Drag and Drop

Hi everyone,
This is the method of advancing the quilt I use. I like it because I don't have to put the needle down and roll my quilt and machine together. I also like this method because it is how I reposition my design if something happens and I forget to hit "DROP" when I am advancing, or if I have to shut down and come back to a project. If I have to be really precise, I use the Handi Quilter needle down method, but since I like designs that don't touch, this one works for me.

Thank you so much for watching!

This video was of so much use to me yesterday as I tackled my first quilt using Prostitcher. Your step-by-step instructions were easy to follow and made advancing to a new row easy (I did watch part of the video multiple times ... once per row but better to rewatch to ensure I did things correctly ....)

I really appreciate the way you teach. You keep it simple and to the point without adding confusing information. Thanks!

I’ve struggled with Prostitcher for the last 3 years and after watching your simple, to the point, no nonsense tutorials I finally completed my first edge to edge without any swearing, tantrums or issues! I was able to set it up, stitch it out and even crop the bottom! Thank you for making it simple! Looking forward to watching all of your videos!

I've had my Amara for a year and been too afraid to use it! Today we walked me through it and I quilted an entire quilt! I can't thank you enough!

So happy to see the drag and drop technique demonstrated. I was so excited when my Amara actually started the second row in the right place! I had a hard time wrapping my head around how to advance the quilt and get the next rows started in the right spot! Thanks so much!

I just tried your drag n drop… love it… I wont be doing it any other way. Your a great teacher..

Oh. My. GOSH. SO SO much better than Needle Down Drag & Drop! You are brilliant to figure this out. This will be my new way to advance. Love it.

[deboralee]

I followed this method and it works so well!

Thanks for the demo on how to use drag n drop, I hated using it because the way I was shown was to drop the needle into the quilt then move it all to next row. It was so hard moving with just the rollers and I was so afraid that I would rip my quilt. Will have to keep coming back on this one it looks so easy Cheers

Adam,
I sew enjoy watching your videos. Your method of drag and drop sounds more friendly than the needle down method. I'm surprised the other educators aren't using it. I look forward to trying it soon. Keep sending new videos out! Thanks.

Thanks for the very real, hands on tips and tricks in addition to the process and steps to follow. I’ll be able to use this info on my next quilt!

[gerrneg]

just tried your drag and drop…. Love it…

Very new to Amara and PS - I had heard the term drag and drop but didn't know what it was exactly. I followed your method and it worked perfectly and was so easy. Thank you!!

[lorettaclinton]

Thank you for the very informative videos.

[charlenemarie]

I enjoy your videos so much. Thank you for this one on drag and drop. It’s a game changer!

[shonnagibson]

Adam.. I was trained to put needle down on lowest point of design and drag drop when advancing quilt. I do this method. In your method I notice it's more steps. Can you please tell me if this method you are showing was how u were taught originally? Thank you I've learned advanced skills to my machine watching u. Thank you for sharing .

[theresamahaffey]

I did everything you did and the design never moved. I tried it 4 times exactly as you did. Still nothing changed. Its not surprising… I continue to have issues with the software glitches.
I ended up canceling out, manually moving the area and design up in modify, so the next row would start where it was supposed to.

I am a new Amara owner and the rulers would be awesome!
