That is fantastic! Don't you just love Elmer's Washable school glue, have you tried the homemade spray glue? It is the bomb also!

No Carslo, I havn't tried the homemade spray glue. Was it talked about on the board?

Oh my goodness what a find, congrats !
You must know of better places than I do in this town, I never find any treasures.

Dana: You're a neighbor! It was one of the ones in old Roseburg, going south on the one way street, but really I just think it was the luck of the draw. There it was, braced up against the wall. A male friend was in the shop and saw it. He imediately called me. I was there in a hot minute. Beware my spies are everywhere.

That is a fantastic find! And to think that nativetexan gave away a Hintenberg frame makes me want to cry. Not that I need it in my sewing room - but it would be a luxury.

Congratulations for your find and I hope the person that finds the Hintenberg relizes what a terrific find that will be.

I have not been to the shops downtown for a while, I am happy you found such a treasure.
Even if I stumbled on it, I would not have a place to put it in our house.

Years ago my husband and a friend built me a frame very similar to yours from a pattern put out by Mountain Mist batting. I only have two bars on mine but could easily cut slots and add extra. I had wondered about using that frame for sandwiching a quilt but have not tried it. So my question is, could you do a tutorial on how you did it?
