That's a huge help Julia. I think ours is more like the Hinterberg at $200,
so we'll see. I'm also asking a couple of hand quilters to take a look at
it, to see if they can evaluate it. Good detective work Julia!!

Is it like one of these? http://tinyurl.com/2v98ekg or

This could also give you some ideas on how to price. $50 may be too high.

Well, maybe that's my problem - this is a hoop, on a stand. Sandy - can
you give me a more accurate description of what that is called, so I can
do more research on it? It is beautiful & we were thinking of putting a
$50 price on it, but maybe that's too high - maybe it's too low!!

Howdy!

Y'all keep saying "there aren't that many hand quilters out there".
Yeah, only about 5 or 6 million, maybe a few more. g

Hand quilting frame: no, thanks.
Hoop, yes.
Price for the frame: whatever anyone offers to take it off your hands.

Have you tried calling information for that area code?

It's likely they are simply out of business though. What do other
frame
makers - Grace, Hinterberg etc. charge for something similar?

At any rate, the guild wouldn't likely sell it at it's original price
or
even very close to it. There aren't all that many hand quilters out
there (sadly) and most of them seem to already have a hoop or frame
they
like if they even use one.

Hi Ross,

Thank you so much. I neglected to say, in my original post that I did
find
the same information as you have, however, when I called the number, I
got a
recording that the area code had changed to "269" & when I try dialing
the
number with the new area code, I get either a recording to try my
number
again, a busy signal or no answer at all - very strange!!

I'm open to any other suggestions!

Is anyone familiar with the Norwood Hand Quilting Frame. I know we
don't
have a lot of hand quilters around, but one of our guild members
donated
hers for our upcoming Fabric Follies & More sale & I have not been
successful in locating any information on the internet about it.
She
told me it is made out of oak & she paid about $300 for it 10 years
ago.
It's in mint condition & we don't want to give it away, nor do we
want to
ask too much money for it. Thanks for any information that you can
give
me.
