Hey there, Patty, I grew up in the 'Burg--that was a loong time ago. We live at Oak Openings where my husband was Manager/Ranger (now retired and often underfoot) and in the summers I'm a ranger at Yellowstone. Too bad being me.
When you get your rack, I'd love to see it so my BIL can make one for me. I'm hoping to be able to switch quilts quickly and easily. And the room I'll put mine is has really high ceilings, so I can go pretty big. Most of the stuff I'll put up there runs in the 5x6 foot range.
Does the Quilt Foundry have a long arm? I've been going out to Wauseon to Corner Quilts. Just picked up a new pine tree pattern--it uses specific material and the thing absolutely glows--one of the most amazing quilts I've ever seen. It's called Alpine Wonder by HD Designs (Mary Lou Hallenbeck) in Brooklyn MI. I usually try to do something unique, but this thing is drop dead gorgeous. Now I have a big time incentive to get the house cleaned so I can sew!!!
CU soon,
Anna
