BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0004] My wife asked me to make her a square quilting rack, so I
designed and built a square quilting rack, with a new way of
holding a quilt. Everyone I showed it to thought it was a good
idea, and very unique.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0005] The reason for the invention was, to simplify the way to
hold a quilt in a square quilting rack, it also holds the quilt
better, and is easier to load the quilting rack.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0019] The quilting rack is a device used to hold fabric, such as a
quilt taut during hand quilting process.
[0020] The quilting rack is made of wood in a home wood shop, and
has some metal hardware, like bolts, nuts, wood screws, and
springs.
[0021] The unique feature of this quilting rack is, the way it
holds the fabric or quilt. It is different from other quilting
racks that holds fabric with a band clamping around a frame. The
new idea is, the spring loaded clamp bars that will hold the quilt
in place. In the drawings on sheet number (2) there is a view of a
quilting rack frame and a quilting rack clamp frame. First lay the
quilt over the frame, and place the clamp on top of the quilt, and
push down over the quilt, and the spring loaded bars will retract
keeping pressure on the quilt, holding it in place. It holds the
quilt better, and it is easier to load the quilt in the quilting
rack.
[0022] The stand that holds the quilting frame is shown on sheet
(1) of the drawings. The stand will adjust for height, tilt and
swivel 360 degrees. Plus the legs will swing in for storage.
