I love my q-snaps because they are lighter than the wooden more expensive type of frames and I can put this on my floor stand without it being too heavy. Very light for traveling too.
This is the most informative QSnap video I’ve seen yet! I have a really large project that is too big for my scroll frame. I was recommended QSnaps, but how would you deal with the excess fabric? I’m worried there is too much to fold like you did, but if that’s the way to go, I’ll try!
I have a small q snap and never liked it because I found it hard to get the clip on pieces off. I will try sliding it next time! Glad I came across your video
I just found your channel. Your tutorial on the Q-Snap is really really good. I didn’t know they had a bag to cover them up an put your charts in good idea!!! I’ll be watching more of your videos. P.S. I finally figured out the q snap. All I have to do is get the steering wheel cover from Dollar Tree. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!
Loved the video....Can you place the q-snap frame over your stitches if it doesn’t have beads? Will it flatten the stitches and damage them? I am new to cross stitching and just started a stamped cross stitch project. The canvas is quite stiff and it is too small for an 17x17 frame and too big for a 11x11 frame. I plan to use the 11x11 frame but it will cover the canvas/stitches. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you. Happy stitching 🧵
I just bought one and getting those things off was an ordeal. I haven’t been able to get them back on yet. They seemed like a great idea but not for me,,, I’m older perhaps I just don’t have enough strength left.
When you slide the clamp off it will stretch the fabric and you wouldn't want to put it over stitched work. You would use the clamps that encompass the whole stitched area or like she has done in the video use 3 sides of the frame if it is too long. I don't know how long you want to leave your piece in the frame while you aren't stitching on it. Probably the same as if you were using hoops.
I am going to be working on a 24 x 24 piece beginning February 2. How would I utilize the 17 x 17 and not damage the stitches already done when I move the fabric? Does placing a piece of quilting material over them keep the stitches from being impacted with the clamp?
Shirley Lenhard if you place a piece of felt or track suiting fabric between your stitching and the clamp, you'll find your stitching will be absolutely fine
jaimie sharkey you can combine different sizes. You couldn't put 3 x 8 inch, though, because it wouldn't make a square. As long as the opposite sides are the same, it'll work.
Good demonstration only one problem can not hear you. You need a mic on your shirt to bring the volume up. Or bring the camera closer to pick up the sound better.
I ❤️ these- but live in 🇬🇧- never seen anything like this- where do I get them- would be great for me- I have problems with my hands- and this method looks easier than my frame!!
