blair8904 Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 My husband want to make the extended base for Millicent. My questions are: How big is your base? What shape is it? Would you change it somehow? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Barb, Do a search on big base and I had pictures posted of a base I made that goes behind my regular base. Your hubby can probably make one similar. I'd make it a little wider than the hartly base, maybe 2" wider would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LinneaMarie Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 I have the Rulermate also; from Donita Reeves. Love it, leave it on all the time.(except to clean!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellysuequilter Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 I've tried both the Hartley Fence base and the Rulermate base and I must say that I prefer my Rulermate base better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawaii Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 My Dad, bless his heart, is always engineering quilty things for me and has made an extended base for me. It works quite nicely. It is 19" across x 13" front to back. He used 1/4" birch ply. Top Bottom Attached to machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
