For a standing system, Kate Henry posted this tutorial PVC Embroidery/Quilt Support system (which my DH refers to as "rage in the cage"

Thanks for posting this - I think I'm going to try making something like this (but a lot shorter, of course) to set up on my cutting table, which sits right behind my main machine.

I bought the SR2 from from Sewing Machines Plus a couple years back...it's no longer offered. If you have a machine with a large enough throat ( starting at 11 inches) it's worth it to be able to move the machine and not the quilt around to finish your project. Of course if you don't do a lot of quilting, is it worth paying the money for?
