My husband made me one when i first started quilting 10 years ago and it still works fine, I really like it and when you take it apart it takes up no room.

I hope you enjoy yours.

Would you be able to share information for others who would like to have one made? Perhaps a photo and maybe some measurements, etc., tht should be very helpful for our husbands.

thank you for sharing this information on the frame. Oh, did you use this with your sewing machine...or for hand quilting???

Thanks Cassie and you are right, when we put it together we decided to not glue the legs so I could take it apart and store in closet when not using it.

June, this frame is used for hand quilting.

If you take this picture to Home Depot or Lowe's plumbing department, they will tell you just what you will need to make it. Thats what I did.

It is easy to put together, just like tinker toys, remember them.

Don't know what is being used in the above picture, but somebody suggested spring clamps and they work just fine. You just have to take them off when not working on quilt.

Go to search and type in pipe quilt frame. There was a discussion on this before. My hubby made one for me and I just love it. You can find the picture and dimensions here at Joannes.

I to would like to know how you tighten the quilt on the frame that was made out of the PVC pipe
My frame has four pieces that goes on the top bad ,it has grooves in it to tighten the quilt.I was just wondering what you would use for that . Wilma Osmond
