    That is a Merry Christmas to you! Happy to hear that you were able to get to that sale before someone else snapped it up!

    Great deal - congratulations. I too sew with a 'standard' size machine on a quilt frame. It works well, you just have to plan on using a narrower design and roll more often. I did 3 bed size quilts on it last Christmas. Since your frame is only crib size you can do a full size quilt by making each half separately and then join them after the quilting is all done. Use that iron on stuff to join the batting or baste it by hand. Again, congratulations. I know you will love it.

    Thanks Alleyoop, I was wondering if I could do that. I have two bed size quilts in the works (still just blocks) and I will try doing it your way.

    Am happy dancing right along with you, except that I'm also GREEN with envy! Trying to control it though-I must remember "Everything in it's own time." Glad your time has come.
