There is a web site that gives you instructions on how to make quilt frame for a domestic sewing machine. I believe the instructions are $25 and you can buy all you need for about $60 at home depot. I think this is what my hubby will be making me for Christmas. It will do while I save money for my Bailey. Reviews are awesome and considering that many women and men, young and not so young made it themselves it cannot be that complicated. If you are looking for strictly hand quilting frame I'd say browse your Craiglist. I see them often for sale here on Long Island and some of them are pretty vintage and really nice. They seem to be hard to sell even with low prices. I guess there are not that many hand quilters around here. I will PM you the web site for the machine quilting frame as soon as my husband comes home. He bookmarked it on his laptop. Good luck and happy quilting.
