Hi and welcome from Texas! I thought about the frame, but after research, it seemed most people felt like the gals who posted above. I ended up ordering the plans for this frame
http://buildaquiltingframe.weebly.com/ . He sells the plans on ebay, too...hubby is in the midst of building it now...I sure hope it works as well as what I have researched says it does. I know I had a couple of questions prior to purchasing the plans, so I e-mailed the man. He was very polite, helpful and quick with his response.
Good Luck to you,
Kif
PS love your board nickname.... :-D
