Oh wow, I collect antiques, that would look great in my foyer. Love it ! Michele

I have seen this design before and have also used it. Thanks for sharing. :D
|
I made my own many years ago.. Loved it -- but now I do my hand quilting on a hoop so I can get comfy on the couch.
|
That is a clever design. I have one that my daughter and I made similiar, but it uses nails to hold the cross pieces in place.
|
I have one just like that, I purchased it from a little quilt shop in Sheridan, Montana about 22 years ago. I think the husband of the lady who owned the shop made them.
|
I have one similar without the notches in it and use it all the time.

That looks so much easier to use than the ones you clamp at the corners. What a great treasure from your family's past.

I just thought since everyone is showing their vintage machines, you'd be interested in seeing my quilt frame.
I added the cross pieces because those have been lost. They are just 2 x 2 inch pieces of wood. I was wondering if anyone else has ever seen one like this? |
Great workmanship, lucky you to have it.
