Edmunds Wood Quilt Hoop Review

Edmunds Wood Quilt Hoop
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The good hoops are actually several veneer-thin layers of beechwood laminated together. The hoops appear to be "endless circles" like a wedding ring.
This hoop was made by bending a thin strip of wood until the ends of the strip touched each other. Then the ends were crudely stapled to a block of wood. The crummy block is not shown in the picture....Hope that the staples don't tear the fabric!
Also, the holes for the hoop-tightening bolt are mis-aligned, making the hoop hard to tighten and loosen.

This 18" solid hardwood hoop with wood fastener holds your work tight and wrinkle free, and is made of a natural color with polished edges to prevent snagging of needlework.

I have had flour sack towels for 30 years and I love their softness, super absorbency, and lack of lint. But, these towels are stiff, and rough textured and do not absorb water from dishes, they merely smear the water over the surface.

I was introduced to Q Snaps by a co-worker eight years ago and I have never gone back to hoops. Q Snaps are user and AIDA cloth friendly, come in many different sizes and can be taken apart and used to construct a new frame in whatever size you need. Unlike most hoops, Q Snaps don't leave behind crimping marks on your cloth and you don't have to loosen or take the whole thing off to tighten your fabric.

Q-Snap frames are made from PVC tubing making them lighter and more durable than other materials. The clamp design for holding the fabric is gentle and simple to use. The clamp design for holding the fabric is gentle and simple to use. Just lay the fabric over the frame then gently push the clamps down stretching the material around the outside of the frame. The ribbed inner surface of the Q-snap clamps hold the tension for your preferred adjustment. Simply turn the clamp outward to tighten or inward to loosen. Measures 11 x 11 inches.

E-Z Stitch Lap Stand -Solid Oak Review

E-Z Stitch Lap Stand -Solid Oak
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have purchsed several stitching stands that were inadequate or just wouldn't function with a recliner. I even bought one that was designed to work specifically with recliners. I've wasted hundreds of dollars until I found this stand.
I am an avid advanced cross-stitcher and can sometimes stitch in excess of 12 hours a day when I'm in the middle of a project. This stand is so easy to use. My hands and arms never get tired from repeatedly having to change positions from top to bottom to complete stitches. I can easily have one hand on top of the work and one beneath it. This allows me to stitch more efficiently and it keeps my threads from frequently twisting. I love how it can accomodate several sizes of scroll frames. I can adjust the distance my work is away from me or pull the stand close up if I need too. It is very comfortable to sit on and doesn't impeded circulation or cause any discomfort. I stitch in a recliner and this is the only stand that works to my satisfaction.
It's worth EVERY cent!

Stitch Master Floorstand Review

Stitch Master Floorstand
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This needlework stand is close to perfect with one troubling flaw.
If you are doing needlepoint using stretcher bars, it is difficult to
get the wooden clamps down tight enough to hold the bars securely.
I've got mine as tight as possible and my project still wiggles out
sometimes. Maybe it's better with dowels for scrolling or large
embroidery frames. I still like it and am working with it regularly.

Average Reviews:

Sulky thread is my favorite thread - it has a wonderful texture when the work is completed, and I often get compliments on my completed pieces which I am sure at least partially can be attributed to this wonderful thread.
It is easy to work with and does not get torn easily. I use it for both quilting and embroidery as the top thread (using another matching in color thread in the bobbin to cut down on overall cost).
This is one of my favorite vari-light colors, the shades of yellow-to-brown blend beautifully. It makes wonderful fall leaves color in my art quilts!

Average Reviews:

I selected the Brother SA224CV after reading many other reviews on various coverstitch sergers. I have not tried all the accessory feet I purchased for the machine but the standard stitch has been very fast and easy to use. I have a Viking serger but never used the coverhem features because it took me longer to set up the machine than do the serging. I have a place in my sewing space for this machine to be set up all the time. For the price I think this is a great machine!
