Q-Snap Frame 11X11- Review

Q-Snap Frame 11X11-
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
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!

American Dream E-Z Stitch Floor Stand No Baste Scroll Frame with Graph Holder Review

American Dream E-Z Stitch Floor Stand No Baste Scroll Frame with Graph Holder
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this American Dream E-Z Stitch Floor Stand for my wife because she loves to cross-stitch and I thought it would be easier for her to cross-stitch with this stand since she is in a wheel chair. This item took forever to receive, and when we got it, it looked nothing like the beautiful Mahogany supposedly made out of redwood like the product information claimed. The stand we got looks like something we would buy at Walmart for $20.00. In other words... wood that is stained and not like the high quality wood product information claim it to be. It is not very sturdy but very wobbly, and even worse you have to stitch the the cross-stitch fabric to the wooden dowels in order for the stand to hold the fabric... so each time your need to move the cross-stitch fabric she has to unto the stitching and restitch it to the dowels. This Product is very deceiving and not worth $179.99. Instructions very difficult to understand. Instructions state there are accessories that can be bought separately for the stand but not listed in product information. If I could afford the postage, I would send it back and find her another cross-stitch stand. Very poor quality product for the price we paid for it. Very Very Unhappy!

Dimensions No Count Cross Stitch, Cinderella Review

Dimensions No Count Cross Stitch, Cinderella
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If you're not a dyed-in-the-wool cross-stitcher, this is for you! Most of the piece is already beautifully painted in soft colors. The areas that you stitch are marked, you do not have to count anything. As a long-time stitcher I felt I could have done with more stitch detail, (i.e.- it was very easy to work!) but I can add colors and do some additional stitching on it but it is not necessary, it is a beautiful piece just as is. This would be awesome on a little girl's bedroom wall! And the adorable girl on it is just darling, a real cutie. I enjoyed stitching this, enjoyed giving it to our 4-year old grand daughter, and love seeing it in her room as a reminder Grandma's always thinking of her. Very very cute. You could frame it in almost any soft color and it will look perfect.

Average Reviews:

This is the very first cross-stitch I've ever done and I love it! It wasn't super easy but it was pretty enough that it forced me to keep at it until it was finished. Larger patterns were too intimidating and so many patterns are just not my style, but this was perfect. I highly recommend this one to cross-stitchers of any experience level.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this to quilt my first quilt which happened to be a queen size. I didn't realize how over my head this project was. I wasn't going to splurge on a $200 hoop, but I should have. This hoop is definitely worth the price. I can make due, but I have to readjust often. If I was quilting a lighter in weight project, I would have absolutely no problem. I am still happy with the purchase, and I'm still shopping for a sturdier hoop.

I am extremely pleased with the quality of this needlepoint product. I like the way the threads are separated and colour coded. That means I can eliminate that step. The colours on the mat are clear, bold and it is easy to see the variations. I will order again from this company. Great job!

Z Lap Frame With Clamp Review

Z Lap Frame With Clamp
Average Reviews:

This frame is so great. Easy to put together, nicely made (its hard wood and I was concerned about rough edges, but its really nicely sanded and treated), its very easy to put the item you are working on in the clamp, and it is also easy to adjust the angle to get really comfy. I am working on a large cross stitch peice roughly 2feet by 1.5 feet which I have in a 17 by 17 inch frame and this stand holds it easily. It folds down to a really manageable size and so I plan to take it with me when I go on vacation in August. I can have it on my lap and put my feet up on the recliner so my back is so much happier. Highly recommended.
