Welcome from OHIO! My grandmother and mother were both quilters and I remember my Grandmother would almost always have a full size quilt frame set up in her dining area. Her friends would stop by and they would sit at the quilt and stitch away, laughing and talking. I have my mom's wooden quilt frame, but I've never hand quilted a quilt and doubt that I ever will. I know they would be amazed at my quilting frame and machine.
