    Wow!! Those backs are as nice as the fronts. Where do you get the energy for that?? :D I'm out of energy once the top is done. I recognized one of my favorite daisy fabrics in the green quilt--upper right-outside row--2nd from the top. :wink:

    The frame is a Hinterberg Stretch frame with 10' poles. I hear everyone talking about using 12' poles but don't know where they get them as Home Depot, Lowes only sell 10' ones. Anyway that goes up to 120" if I need more than that I'll figure out something. The machine is my beloved Juki 98Q. A workhorse of a machine that does a wonderful job of sewing.
    I got the frame for Christmas 07 so I'm still in the newbie process of quilting. My husband made me the handles and a cruise control which works very well. I now find quilting to be a joy which is why I'm getting my ufo's finished off. I've done 8 quilts and have another 8 to go.
    I had tried the John Flynn frame prior to this but found it very awkward, it sits on a shelf now. The stretch frame is under $900 and worth every cent.

    I knew the handles looked handy husband made but are you saying he made the cruise control too? I don't think mine is quite that handy! :shock:
