Nita--Yes, it's a Q-snap frame. I have mixed feelings about it. I don't have room for a large frame, and this one is lightweight and doesn't take up a lot of room. BUT, it's a little awkward when quilting. If I had room, I'd rather use a large frame that I could roll the quilt on. So, I have been experimenting with my BOM project for 2010...I have been quilting each block as I finish piecing (they are the pink/blue/white blocks on my design board)and quilting larger quilts without a frame or a hoop. I just pin it closely. So far these two methods have worked well for me.
