Thanks!

My son said he will use a little bigger pipe and cut it length wise to make a "C" then that will clamp right over the quilt and the pipe underneath. The clamp will be a little shorter to both ends. And it will have to be sanded nice and smooth so it wont damage my quilts

What a thoughtful son you have. You'll have lots of fun with your new toy and get lots of quilting done too.

Aren't sons wonderful!! My son has made me everything for my sewing room. He just helped me cut four 4x8' sheets of luan wood down to 12"x14" to wrap fabric around. (Will post pictures as soon as I get finished.)
