Grace Z44-FF Pro No-Baste, Tiltable Hand Quilting Frame Review

While the concept is wonderful - who wouldn't love a no baste hand quilting frame - the reality is that this frame is extremely cumbersome. I spent days sanding and staining the pieces. But that was nothing compared to assembling it and moving it from the garage into the house by myself. It is stunningly time consuming to tighten the little screws and all the bolts and knobs, load the backing, batting and quilt top correctly and evenly and it takes up a solid one third of my living room. However, if you make it through all that, it's quite nice for the actual quilting. I'm not sure I'd recommend it to anyone - especially if you live alone and have to manhandle this by yourself ... and I'm not one to back down from a challenge.

The Z44 comes equipped with all of the necessary extensions to set up the frame as a King 109", Queen 95", Twin 73", and Crib 59". You virtually receive four frames for the price of one, making it the most cost effective system on the market.Each layer of fabric is held on its own rail where you have absolute control over it. All layers come together in the front of the frame where they are comfortably quilted. Our raised middle rail keeps all layers firmly together with no sagging, shifting separatling, and no basting!The Z44 frame is also compact-- only 35 inches from front to back giving you a 14 inch tiltable work area. Two sets of braces underneath the frame provide stability without conpromising any leg space.

Delivery took about a week. Quality of product was good, somewhat more difficult to load a quilt than I anticipated. Quilting position is comfortable though.

The EZ3 is a three-rail, no baste quilting system that has rail extensions for crib (32"), crib (64") and Queen (94") size, all included with purchase.Its streamlined design gives you the most quilting frame in the least amount of space. when in use, the EZ3 is only 23" front to back. The 12" work area is tiltable to four different angles, ranging from horizontal to 45 degrees. Because of its unique "Z" design, your leg space is always preserved, regardless of the angle. Smooth Rolling Ratchet Wheels:Excellent front-to-back tension is achieved with three 30-tooth ratchet wheels. The stops have a double-lock design to eliminate the chance of the tension slipping. Fabri-Fast:The new Fabri-Fast feature alone makes the EZ3 an excellent value. Now install you fabric without tacks or tape! simply align your fabric (or leader cloth) with the slot in the rail, and push in using the Fabri-Fast tubing. User-friendly Knobs:Adjusting and folding the EZ3 Fabri-Fast frame is much easier, as larger black knobs are now used in place of wing nuts. Folds up for easy storage:When you need extra space simply fold the EZ3 and store it against the wall, or even under the bed. With our new comfortable grip knobs, folding takes seconds and requires no tools. The frame flattens down to just nine inches! Extension ConnectorsRail extensions are equipped with inside connectors making the width of the rails uniform the entire length, whether in crib or queen size. Fabric rolls on smoothly, without any variance, bumps or bunches. Spring-loaded buttons lock the rails together and make re-sizing the frame quick and easy. Space Saving Design and Sturdy Construction:The EZ3 has a light-weight, yet very sturdy design. It is made from premium dense Baltic birch plywood. The rails are aluminum extrusions made specifically with the quilting process in mind.
