Vintage machines on quilting frames
#1
Hi...I'm wondering if anyone is actually using a vintage sewing machine (I'm probably thinking an old Singer) on a quilting frame.
If so, what model machine have you got and is it successful? What size harp does your machine have and is it big enough? What doesn't work about the setup?
Hubby is thinking he could make me a frame and we wondered if a cheaper option would be to put an old Singer on it, rather than buy a modern machine. I don't know which model would be more suitable though. I don't think I really want to use my Horizon on it...I would rather have a dedicated machine.
