Thank you to who ever posted about the Jennoop!
 

I can't find the original post now - but this is a PVC structure which can be positioned over your sewing machine and it has suspenders and clamps that supports the quilt as you sew it.
There were a couple posts where the people made their own with PVC pipe - and those were great but the people at my Home Depot were not as assisting and my husband is not one to build something if he can order it already made. (IKEA is not his favorite store.) But the Jennoop comes with everything you need and it assembles in minutes. And by that I mean no more than 5 minutes.

When it arrived I set it up and used it to hold strips as I cut them. Then it held rows of the quilt I am working on now. Today I started using it to help me quilt and it is fantastic! Right now it is only a throw size, but I don't need an extension table and the clamps they use are so easy to clip and release. I just can't say enough nice things about it. I just wanted to say "thank you" to the original poster.

Thank you for posting this. I've been on the fence about trying it, but will order one now. Just have to decide between the stand or the ceiling anchors.

glad to hear such positive comments

and here's the QB tut about making a home made one http://www.quiltingboard.com/tutoria...e-t250308.html

My machine is under a bank of cabinets so my DH made one & attached to underside of cabinets! Works wonderful!!

I just built a table around my Bernina so table support works great for me. I was taught in the olden days to just flip the quilt over on your shoulder. THAT NEVER worked for me !! :)

I also am a fan of the JennOop suspenders. Two years ago I bought a Sweet 16 sit down with side extension table. I still had problems with balancing the weight of a large quilt, my shoulders ached (Maniac, I flip my quilt on mine LOL), and actually hated my machine to the point where I was going to sell it. I saw the original post here on QB and being the gadget lover that I am bought it. I love it!!! It is such a simple principle but there is no drag on large quilts, my stitches are so much more even, and I fell in love with my Sweet 16. Do I sound like a commercial? Sorry, but I've seen such an improvement in my FMQ that I'd recommend it to anyone, my friend uses one on her DSM.

Yes, they would be easy to build but MrJanRn would say "I'll get around to it" and never would.

Does this work for embroidery too? It looks like it would.

I just love my Jennoop set up! It truly does almost eliminate "the dreaded drag". I also use it to hold my roll of binding as I am sewing it on.

Looks interesting and great price for the stand set up. I don't know how it will work with edge to edge quilting. That's about all I do when I machine quilt my own quilts.
