The 2 x 2 side pieces, that the quilt is attached to, fit into the notches. As the quilt is rolled on the side pieces, the side pieces are moved to fit into slots that are closer together. A church member who is a carpenter made it years ago.


Bobby's Girl could post pictures and maybe see the builder would share the pattern? Sounds like a good frame, something I could build myself. Thanks
