MY rule, if it has any thing to do with quilting or sewing and I like it and I have the money for it, I get it! I have a beautiful solid oak quilt frame, I have only used a couple of time to baste a small quilt on, or to hang un-quilted tops on. I have a dress fore I have yet to use. I don't have to justify why, I wanted it and I like having it. And yes I have 22 years of books and mags all about quilting!! and love them@!
