How lucky am I?

A friend is downsizing everything and I gained this fabulous quilt frame. Now I have no intention of ever hand quilting at a frame, but if I can find an extra rail, this will be brilliant for basting. I'm so excited about this, just wish I had a quilt 'ready to go'!
Anyone know where in England I can get long wooden rails? Just the one...

  1. Try long length curtain rails? They are nicely finished too. Can't remember what the longest length is though.

  2. You can get a long wooden pole at a lumber yard, Home Deopt, or Lowes. Any lumber yard will carry them ... take your measurements and they will cut to fit. Hope this helps!

  3. B&Q or Homebase, or a builder's or joiner's yard. Of course you might need to do some sanding and finishing, in those cases..

  4. Try looking up 'manufacturing joiners' in the yellow pages - they can usually make things to your specification.
