Fast Frames

Does any one use fast frames? Any tricks to make it easier? What stabilizer do you use?

Thanks for the info.

They are about as easy as you can get. I get my sticky stabilizer from http://www.rnk-inc.com/ It is called "Perfect Stick". You don't get the gummy needles and such from using this sticky like you do all the others. What questions do you have in particular?

What problems are you having? I use sticky backing from Madeira. It doesn't gum up needles but it isn't particularily tacky. Some people use Sewers Ease or silicon spray to reduce gumminess. Some people avoid the sticky needle problem by cutting a window out from the sticky backing and attach cutaway to the sticky.

Slow your machine speed to help reduce an unwanted shift in the design. Some embroiderers clip/tape items in place. For large items you can use a chair with a box to support the weight of the item so it doesn't drag on the needle plate.
