I have what use to be for punching rugs that I use as a sit down frame for hand quilting. It provides a larger space to work at and I can use any size quilt with it. Years ago I had it hung in my front porch where I could raise and lower it on pulleys when I was done working on it for a day. I spent a great deal of time on that porch hand quilting. Now that I moved from there I put this on the table legs and it works as well just indoors without the pleasant weather to enjoy.
