I had a neighbor long,long ago that had a quilt frame that would hang from the ceiling on chains. I think it had a chain for each corner of the quilt, but I can't remember much more then this. I think she told me it was like the one that her great-grandmother had. I wondered if anyone else has ever seen or used one, and could give me some details.
Thanks, Pam |
I have seen them hanging by chains, but I have also seen some that were raised and lowered using pulleys :D:D:D

Here in the south it was the norm to have the frames hanging from the ceilings on a pulley system. On Saturdays or what ever day was chosen the women would get together and quilt while exchanging the news of the week (gossiping).
