Hinterberg quilt frames
Hi All,
I'm considering purchasing the Hinterberg quilt frame kit. Does anyone have any experience with this it? If not, are there any other suggestions? -- Bonnie NJ |

The hoops were too big for my short arms and they didn't tilt and rotate the
way I wanted it to. I would prefer (if I got one) a Grace. More maneuverability and they have smaller frames if you want them. -- LN in NH a crazy quilter * hand quilter * & hand appliquér all in all --- a very slow quilter....

way I wanted it to. I would prefer (if I got one) a Grace. I have the same complaints witht eh Hinterbergs. I have a Jasmine Easy Spinner. It has infinite adjustment possibilities, hoops that fit my arms, and when you have the hoop where you want it, you can lock it in place so both your hands are free. That is one feature I can't be without. Kathy "Work like you don't need money, love like you've never been hurt....and dance like no one's watching !" |

I have one! I love it, but have yet to complete a quilt in it (just
finished the frame not long ago) The best advice I received when contemplating it, was to consider the amount of room it will take up. You can see a pic of mine he http://home.earthlink.net/~dunawayjan It was our first project and we completed it without to many argghh moments. Hope that helps. :-) Jan Bonnie wrote: Hi All, I'm considering purchasing the Hinterberg quilt frame kit. Does anyone have any experience with this it? If not, are there any other suggestions? |

Oh! Pardon. I was thinking hoop frame. That's the way I quilt, so I totally
wasn't thinking about the large frame. -- LN in NH a crazy quilter * hand quilter * & hand appliquér all in all --- a very slow quilter....

I hoping to put on the 12' to handle the king size quilt. I may shorten the rails at a later date. Now I just have to decide into which room I'll put the frame. My sewing room is quite full. I'd love to have it in the livingroom so that I can visit with others while I quilt. Bonnie NJ |
