I have a grace frame with a PQ1500 brother machine. Also have the stitch regulator. I love this setup for what I do, but find that some of the larger quilts bow the poles on the frame. Has anyone else had that problem? If so, what did you do to fix this matter? Any info will help. Thanks!

I am new to machine quilting. So far I have only quilted small items such as table runners, baby quilts and lap size throws. I would like to use a quilting frame but I am unsure what type to look at. I have seen the hinterberg frames at a show and I have a John Flynn frame that I used some. There are no places to see a quilt frame in use in my area. I have seen some of the old style ones from 10 to 15 years ago that use only designs that have to be followed. I would really appreciate any information.

Well, they did not have any near me either. A friend had purchased one from KathyQuilts and so I checked them out. They are very, very, helpful with any problem and if you email, you will get an answer back. They sell the Grace frames, so check out their website. At least now we have the internet to check on things. I didn't find much four or five years ago, but now there is great information. kathyquilts.com
