After all the discussion here on the board regarding lap frames, this is the one I decided on. My husband, who put it together for me, said that the craftsmanship was just beautiful!

Am going to try it out either this evening or tomorrow :-) :-)

Wanted to show how much this thing will tilt

Looks very nice. I don't hand quilt ( my hands can't take it ) but I am sure anything with the Grace name on it is great. Have fun.

I have a panel for a wallhanging all ready to go. Trying to decide how best to quilt it....

Hand quilting (for me) is very relaxing. However, I've never done anything larger than a crib size quilt so we shall see how "relaxing" it is when I have something bigger :shock: :shock:

I hand quilt with ladies from church two full days and also find it very relaxing. :-o :-o I prefer to hand piece unless it is too stiff. :lol: :lol:

What is the size of the hoop? I also use a lap frame but find myself re-hooping more often than I'd like to.

That is the one I would choose, too. I only do hand quilting, so that one would be perfect I think.
