A friend's father just bought her a quilt frame at a garage sale.
It's apparently "like new" - i.e. never used because never assembled/
still in the box. The problem is that there were no instructions of
any kind (sound familiar? :-) Can anyone help?

It's a Sears quilt frame (Stock #48172) I haven't seen it - getting
info. 2nd hand, but if more is req'd., let me know and I'll try to
find out anything I can... TIA

Doc, looks like lots of others bought a Sears quilt frame but didn't
get instructions. Matter of fact, I'm thinking there may not have been
instructions, LOL. Anyway, I found this link. Check it out, don't know
how old it is or if the offer still stands.

Well, Doc. There you have it.
Nothing.
The awful truth is - if you did have the assembly instructions, they
probably would have been written for a discontinued model and in Portuguese.
I, however, do keep a list of appropriate blue words and colorful
expressions on hand for 'some assembly required'. It's been compiled from
years of swing sets, artificial Christmas tree stands and bicycles. Let me
know if you need it. Polly

Thanks Sunny,

You found more than we did; I've written and we'll see what happens.

I think I'd settle for that. Not usually a problem for designers/
engineers. A challenge, yes, but a picture is worth...

I thought I wrote that list... Things do get around the net, don't
they... ;-)

Wow, 11 years ago you asked for instructions. I am in search of instructions, too. My mother has the quilt frame in a box. It seems to be missing a few pieces and the instructions were still folded up, shoved in a corner, and decayed in places. I was hoping to find a nice pretty set online, but no luck. Here is what I have pieced together from the crumpled up piece of paper that I have.
