JudyL Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Sherry: Here's the one I use: http://www.adorama.com/BMSSPS.html?searchinfo=Savage%20Port%20a%20stand&item_no=1 I've had it for 2 years and it works great. When not in use, it hardly takes up any room. If you use it outside, you may need to use some sand bags or something heavy around the legs. A gust of wind can catch the quilt and send everything toppling over. Price hasn't changed in 2 years either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sams Mom Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Judy, You should get an endorcement bonus from thesecompanies. I'm sure the chair biz place did and this photography place will see a huge anomaly in their sales following your helpful hints. We quilters really appreciate the information. It truely makes our lives easier. To address the question of good pictues. I saw on webshots pictures of Sherri's set up. She has a spotlight looking thing that she has attacted to the ceiling to illuminate the quilting. That's a good idea if you have the room to take pictures inside.

JoAnnHoffman Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 I bought one off of ebay for $56.00. Look under backdrop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crafty Unicorn Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Thanks so much for the tip. I just got 2 stands on eBay for less than the price of 1 through the quilting catalogs Now the raffle quilt I'm working on for the local Town Hall Restoration comittee will have a suitable display.

Debbie Rolek Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 I bought one locally for the less than I could have online, just check photographic suppliers. I made a back drop curtain out of queen size wide cotton/poly (drape lining and made it very long so the quilts never have to touch the ground. Plus hides all the things behind of your personal life. (kids clutter ex.) I also borrowed permantly 15 lbs of weights for each leg, I would hate for it to fall over. I tied them to the weights and then to the legs. Judy is correct, they fold up nice. At a quilt show they had securing clamps that would attach to the quilt for $2.50 each, but Menards had them for $0.99, and I plan to add them to the metal shower curtain rings to hang it on the rod.

JoAnnHoffman Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 I just put in backdrop in the search box. Or try photographic backdrop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
