Hmm, I didn't give up so much as I never really got started :oops: I absolutely lusted after a frame ... wanted one sooo bad .... was blessed enough to have one given to me ... couldn't wait to get it put together and I did it myself because I was too impatient to wait for DH ... put my regular machine on it and practiced a bit. It was fun BUT with that machine on the frame I didn't have anything to piece with :cry: and I was going thru withdrawal so I took the machine off the frame so I could piece and hmmm, several months later it makes a really good spot to hang stuff to dry :roll: or to sort fabric on it. I told DH that I planned to save my Christmas money to buy a 9" machine to put on the frame so maybe next year :lol:
