I hope to be borrowing a frame but I many end up not using a frame at all. Suggestions?

Recommendation for quilting frame: http://www.nosliphoops.com/index.html - the floor model craft stand. I went to the Houston Quilt Festival looking for a beautiful wooden frame and there was none to be found. I ran across the Morgan booth and the owner showed me their quilt stand.

I used it and loved how I could rotate the quilt and keep it at the right height. I purchased the package with quilt holders to keep the quilt up to allow air because it gets Hot in Texas. For me it was worth the money!!
