I found a Hinterbreg quilting frame on Craigslist for $100.
and they have reduced to $85.00.

It will accomodate a 114" quilt.


IS THIS A GOOD BARGAIN???????

YES! Especially if it has ALL the parts, including what the kit doesn't come with (3 pieces, I think) if you order it direct. Is is assembled, ready to use - just figure out how to haul it home in one piece? If YES to all of that, and it's in good working condition - go for it! Did they already give it a clear coat of finishing, or do you need to take it apart and do that yourself? Make sure you get ALL the paperwork, assembly directions, extra order parts info, etc for it! Let us know if you got it!

thats a hand quilting frame and looks like a deal

jbj137 05-02-2010 07:38 AM

YES, it has all parts including the extra stuff
you have to buy (poles & lumber).

She says she has never used it.

Not sure if it is together or not,
or if it is clear coated.


Going to E-mail or call now to find out.

THANKS for giving me the questions to ask. JBJ137

buy the poles and lumber?? i remember buying one kit in a box and it only came with the metal pieces. cost $50.00 back then. my husband bought the metal poles but never made it for me.
make sure what parts it comes with.

wow, how awesome, you going to buy it?

I have the same frame. Yes, it's a bargain at $85. The kit goes for $149, new, plus the cost of three poles and the tressle. Even if it's not put together, grab it. Putting it together is a cinch. Very easy to load and use, too. They take up very little room when tilted down as long as you have the width (10 feet) to store it. Go for it!

Hinterberg is a very old company with a great reputation. You should definitely go for it. I wish I had one.
