After my sisters helped me sandwich and baste my fist quilt by crawling on the floor, my BIL asked if there weren't frames that could do this. After he and I investigated various plans for quilting frames on the internet, I picked one. My DH paid for the materials and my BIL did all the work.

It took a while to get it all set up and working in my sewing room (aka guest bedroom), but finally I finished testing/practicing and loaded a quilt back, batting and top. Then quilted. I think it turned out pretty well.

The quilt is small Summer in the Park found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5WgTyqB8Pc.
The frame can be found at http://buildaquiltingframe.weebly.com/index.html.
