I would suggest that you do some search on
Grace company's web site and look for the instruction to assemble the frame. OR you can write to them and ask for a copy, but you will need to know the model name of the frame.

It is not going to be doom and gloom! Many women have assembled their frames...and most of us did not have a tutor to teach us how to do the quilting designs. Most of us practiced and practiced on old sheets with batting in the middle until we got the hang of the machine running over the top of the quilt. I had to get used to the idea of moving the machine...and not the quilt. Boy, what a joy it was to not drag that quilt through the harp of the machine.

Be aware that the harp on your domestic machine may limit the quilting space you will have as you roll up your quilted quilt. Start small...to learn what the possibilities are for this size machine. Later you might want to invest in something with a longer arm....which will give more quilting space.
I will be glad to help you along the way.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. Take it!!!
