Thank you for sharing your experience. Could you please tell me if a quilting hoop stand (homestead stand hinterberg design) can be used for a large cross stitch project.
I got frustrated with my floor stand situation and it basically made me stop stitching. I have been trying to come back to it but I’m so temperamental about my stands. This gives me some good ideas!
I wonder if any one has ever considered Mounting those frames (The arms of the frame) right onto the wall? (Since you are making such huge projects) Having your frame mounted onto a wall would give you so much stability. If someone could design maybe a track system that would allow you to slide your arms from side to side depending on the width you require. True, you would not be able to move your stitching around the room, but if you had a dedicated spot where you like to stitch... (Sorry, I'm just thinking out loud.) I really like the "Omanik" stitchery frames which are almost identical to your "Millenium" scroll frames. The main drawback is that they are heavy and you have to have them supported by a stand in order to stitch with them. Also, they are wonderful for amazing tension from top to bottom, but side to side, especially if you are working on a really BIG project the tension from side to side is just not there. Anyway, I enjoyed seeing your collection of stands and frames.
Was the first one a Wonder Stitch stand? If so can you tell me the easiest way to cut off my thread from the back? I’m searching videos I’m new to these stands.. Thanks for the video! Sheila
It’s not but it’s the same company. It’s one that I got from Michael’s but I forget what it’s called. I usually just feel for my thread on the back and cut it by feel. What I like to do though is bring the thread back up close to where I anchored it in an unused spot and cut it off right at the fabric
@@HeatherConfettiStitcher Thank you hun, Appreciate your quick reply I know how to do the back of the cross stitch!! The problem withthe Wonder Stitch is it is so hard to get to the back of the frame Although I saw a video yesterday with employee from Edmunds that said the Wonder Stitch can be turned at 360 degrees to get to the back Either I’m lost or that is not correct So I’ve tried to find videos on the demonstration of the Winder Stitch as I’m really bummed out that it is so hard to work the back stitch…Thanks again for your assistance..Take Care Sheila
