Hi all!

My father is an accomplished woodworker and is willing to make anything I ask for - you should see the bedrooms full of furniture he's made our family!! And my custom made sewing center!! It's name is "Nirvana"... and for VERY good reason. hehehe

Anyway, I've now decided want a couple of quilt racks made. I Googled "quilt racks" and see there are a few different styles. Some people use a ladder of some sort, one example being:

And I see a LOT like this:

Is one better than the other, or is it totally what you think looks better?

Is any specific wood better than the others?

All I have to do is provide my Dad with a picture of what I want, and he will replicate it. That's how we (well, HE) did my sewing center. I had an online sewing buddy show me a picture of a sewing center that cost $4,000 and it was really nice. I jokingly mentioned it to my father, and what do ya know! We customized one for ME... saving me $4,000! LOL As if! hehe

Anyway, thank you for any thoughts you may have!!
