    Have any of you hand quilters tried it. If so, did you like it and where did you buy it?

    I met the woman who invented it at a quilt show several years ago and she didn't use a hoop when she showed me how to use it. I know there is a video out there somewhere on how to use it, but I'll have to look to see if I can find it

    Do a quick search on this site for the Aunt Becky's and you can check the other discussions we've had about it too.

    I've watched the video & she makes it look so easy, but then again she's been doing it & using it for YEARS!!
    I'll follow this thread to see if those of you out here that have it, use it & like it!!
