I have my grandmother's quilting frame. Unfortunately, I do not hand quilt and have no idea how to put it together. So I could only post pictures of the pieces! Nobody else wanted it when she died and I am the only one who quilts. I couldn't let them just get rid of it, so I have it.

It seems silly because I have no desire to hand quilt. I absolutely hate hand sewing. I even sew my bindings on with my machine (but don't tell the quilt police)! I keep hoping that one of the relatives will decide that hand quilting is their thing. In the meantime, I will keep the frame in storage.
