One thing I forgot to mention about this frame is that you can simply roll up the top,batting and backing and stand them in the corner if you want to take the frame down and use your space again. If you want to work on more than one quilt at a time you simply get 3 more metal rods and waalaa you are good to go. I have 5' rods on mine and I use it on a folding table I got at an office supply store. It is just 60" long. It works for me.
