I will let you know how it "works" for me....:)

Dungeonquilts, how did you like the Flynn Frame? I know there is a learning curve to deal with, but am just curious how it all worked for you. Thanks so much for your response.

I have offered to give mine to anyone who will come and get it. So far no takers.
Baby quilts are easy to quilt without it.
To enlarge it would take as much room as a long arm frame and be extremly hard to manage. Imagine holding a large frame and quiding it on pvc pipes for even a twin size.
Waste of money.

This frame takes some getting used to just like everything else we do. I purchased one and I like it alot. It took me alot of practice and finally feel like I have it down pat.

[quote=whinnytoo]I had a Flynn frame a few years ago, and gave up with the pvc pipes. Hubby bought some 'chair casters' and drilled holes in the bottom of the frame ends, so the casters would fit in there and it rolled around very nicely!!! Hope this helps......... the pvc was on the floor more than it was on the table LOL[/quote

I have been wondering if that would work. Thanks for mentioning it.
