q frames

There are all sorts of simple quilting frames. I have one that's a huge hoop on a floor stand and one that I inherited that's four rails (strips of wood) that fit together at the corners with bolts. It uses fabric "sleeves" on the rails to attach the quilt "sandwich." It hangs from the ceiling, and 3 people can sit on each side to work on a quilt. You could probably make something similar but smaller out of PVC pipe and set it on sawhorses.




Here's one that's really simple: http://www.texasbob.com/q_frame.html



Here's another: http://www.hgtv.com/crafting/joe-sladkys… with a video here: http://www.hgtv.com/videos/joe-sladkys-q…



This one has directions but no picture: http://www.essortment.com/hobbies/buildq…



Another one: http://www.quiltchat.com/lessons/floorfr…



This one involves payment for the plans, and while it's quite simple to construct, it's a bit better designed than some of the others: http://www.moritzdesigns.com/quilting/fr…
