Mollie Sue- Yes, the little red dress was mine. It's almost 52 years old! My Momma didn't dress me in pink or pastel. I wore RED!!
And yes, it is a cookbook holder. It sure comes in handy. |
very nice

Nita--Yes, it's a Q-snap frame. I have mixed feelings about it. I don't have room for a large frame, and this one is lightweight and doesn't take up a lot of room. BUT, it's a little awkward when quilting. If I had room, I'd rather use a large frame that I could roll the quilt on. So, I have been experimenting with my BOM project for 2010...I have been quilting each block as I finish piecing (they are the pink/blue/white blocks on my design board)and quilting larger quilts without a frame or a hoop. I just pin it closely. So far these two methods have worked well for me.

I have a frame like yours too. I stopped using it when I started FMQ and will never go back to hand quilting, I like FMQ so much better and so much faster.
|
Nita--I will measure it when I get home and get back with you.

You have a beautiful sewing room :D:D:D
Your little helpers are adorable!!! |
Sheila, I love the quilt you made for Bailey. Yours sewing room is nice also. I notice you live in Soddy Daisy, so do I.
Small world. |

I happened to notice the Q-Snaps quilt frame ...... you didn't mention it. How do you like it? I was thinking of getting a frame like that for hand quilting, but wanted to hear someone else's input before I made the purchase. http://www.ehow.com/how_4928734_make...ng-frame.html# Opps forgot to comment how nice your sewing rm is...looks very inviting and those pugs must bring you lots of love. |
