Susan Stallings is selling a beautiful Quilting Frame. It is 10 feet long and 40" high with cogs on the ends, so you can quilt or tie without taking up the whole room. She is asking only $75, so if you are interested, please call her at 734-4386. Since many of you have asked about quilt frames in the past, we thought we'd pass this deal along!
