I just got a new Bailey Home Quilter. I don't have much room and can't quilt from the back. Would anyone know how I could mount a laser to use from the front of the frame. I have an older HandiQuilter frame.

Will you be able to have your panto in front too? Is that what you are going to use your laser light for? One of the reasons that the pantos are used from the back is because of the shelf they need to sit on and the way the quilts are loaded on the poles.

If you get a large clip/clamp that has rubberized grips, you can mount your laser to the handlebars. I was having issues with mine being too low, so my DH rigged it up for me. If you would like more info, you can pm me. I hope this is of some help.

Just looking.

Did you notice how the avatar quilts for Mary L Booth and quilterella go so well together?

Bet you have more in common than you knew before.
