Evolution Hoop Hybrid Quilting Frame

Tiny But Mighty Quilting Frame

The benefit of the Evolution Hoop Frame is the small size. If you have 6 feet, you can fit this quilting frame!

But all quilters like to grow. We like to try new techniques and expand our creative possibilities. The Evolution Hoop Frame is the first of it's kind to be able to transform not only into a Rolling Rail Frame, it can also be upgraded and expanded into an 8, 10, or 12 foot Evolution Elite Frame! 

How Much Space Will You Have for Quilting?

The Evolution Hoop Frame is designed with bigger clamps that make it easier to roll your quilt up on the frame. This means the bulk of the quilt will be pushed upward into the top of your machine's harp space.

For this reason, we recommend using sewing machines that have a minimum of 5 1/2 inches x 8 inches of harp space:

Yes, smaller machines will fit, but you'll have very little quilting space. Make sure your home sewing machine is big enough, or consider upgrading to a Qnique Longarm to make quilting even easier!

Leah's Advice on Picking Your Frame

It can be really tough to know which sized frame to buy, especially when you're first getting started with longarm quilting. My best advice is to go with the maximum size your quilting space allows. When I set up my first frame, I couldn't imagine ever needing a frame longer than 8 feet. Within 2 years I'd expanded my frame twice to reach 12 feet!

What machines are compatible?

The Evolution Hoop Hybrid Frame can fit any home sewing machine, off-brand longarms (like the Babylock Tiara or HQ Sweet 16*) and the following Qnique Longarms:

For the most quilting happiness, it is recommended that your home sewing machine has at least a 9 inch harp space. This will give you enough space to quilt creative designs on this frame.

* You can use non-Qnique sit-down style longarms like the Babylock Tiara or HandiQuilter Sweet 16 with this frame. Unfortunately these machines are not compatible with our stitch regulators so you must use the machine's foot pedal to control the speed.
