What is longarm Quilting?
Longarm quilting is a large sewing machine that is mounted on a table with rails for the machine to ride on. The separate layers of the quilt are loaded onto rollers on the machine and are gathered up on a single roller after being quilted. The sewing machine moves over the top of the quilt for quilting. Since the quilt top isn’t moving, it prevents bunching, sliding, or repositioning of the quilt top during the quilting process. There is also no basting or pinning required on a long arm quilting machine so the quilt top tends to lay very flat and there is no puckering.
