Was the frame included with your Tin Lizzie? My local store sells a Tin Lizzie on a Grace Co frame. I would like to have one so badly!
I bought mine through a dealer I met at a small quilt show near me. I live in a very rural area. He had to deliver it from about 225 miles away. When I did some research, I really didn't find a difference in price but he was willing to deliver, set up and give me a quick lesson, so I bought it from him. I found a site yesterday that included a mini retreat in houston that was free if you bought from them and the price looked the same I am trying to find that site again for you. But meanwhile here is a site where you can see a picture of it and what the frame looks like. I have seen videos on utube of other setups that seem a little easier to roll your quilt but this isn't bad. Once I had a queen size quilt loaded, it took me about 6 hours to quilt it edge to edge with a pantogram. I do really like it though and it was at a price I could convince my DH was an okay amount to spend. LOL He is always very generous with my hobbies.
