Best quilting frames according to redditors

I have this and I LOVE IT

I can easily adjust the legs, and it's easy to switch frames, too. Also, I really like the clamp system for holding the fabric to the frame. No taping, no stitiching, just clamp it in like you would with a q-snap. It has lots of great reviews, and I"m one of them!

It's this one but it isn't currently available through Amazon 😿


They do have a slightly different one available, it just has less mobility.

In case you ARE speaking of a stand, I have used this one and loved it.

If you are speaking of a scroll frame, which can be square and also covered in a grime guard, any of the big box stores or local needlework shops sell them.

I love this one....

It’s great to travel with and for everyday use.

Amazon has this ...$99.99. Herrschners hand quilting frame. I have no idea if the link will works but easy enough to find on Amazon.com.

It’s currently out of stock but I would grab one when it’s available again!

I have the Daylight Stitchsmart stand. After a bit of digging I found it on sale. I bought this one becuase being able to swivel to turn over my work was a must for me. It holds Qsnaps, hoops, and scroll rods up to 30"

There are 42 reviews on this one and it’s the highest rated on amazon. Do you think this is a good stand?

GONCHAROFF EMBROIDERY FRAME DIANA FOR USE ON TABLE OR COUCH; MADE FROM ORGANIC BEECH, COMPLETE WITH TAPESTRY FRAME; 12X15,5 INCHES (30X40CM) - HANDS-FREE WITH https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CMFSGU6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_lY.CDbHZX6E5Q

A few ideas:

• New scissors are always appreciated because they have to be VERY SHARP in order to be useful. There are lots of cute ones on Etsy and Amazon.
  
• A stitching stand can save your hands from cramping and change a stitcher's life by letting them try two-handed! I like this one that sits under your legs while you work.
  
• I love having a cute basket to put my stitching that is near the couch but doesn't mess up the living room decor.

Did you know Amazon will donate a portion of every purchase if you shop by going to smile.amazon.com instead? Over $50,000,000 has been raised for charity - all you need to do is change the URL!

Hello everyone! I've been having a lot of fun with this latest project. I've learned a lot

1. Hoops for a project that is over 10 inches both ways sucks.
   
   
2. I love this lap stand that a poster here suggested (thank you whoever it was!! Maybe u/wildviolet ?). Notice how each side is adjustable? That means when I am doing this big project, I can shorten one side, have it sit on the arm of my chair, have the other leg longer ...so the project is the same height, but the whole thing doesn't have to be centered on my lap. That has Really helped with shoulder pain, as I don't have to reach as far to get to the far left (or right) of the frame, and I can still sit in my comfy recliner.
   
   
3. Always check the size of the pattern before you buy it. I thought awww cute... a little bull dog for my friend. Bought it, went to buy materials and it's the largest project I've done to date! I decided to do it anyways, Luckily she can't complain about size as it's a gift ;)
   
   
4. Cats love lap stands. Picture of proof included.
   
   
5. Must have cat free room/space to store lap stand if you have cats. You just can't leave it in your chair, they would get on it way too much.
   
   
6. I love the John James petite needles. I thought they would be too small after they arrived. But after a few weeks of using them on this, they work great! I haven't had an threads break due to the eyes. Every eye fit the needle minder. I even bought some regular size needles to try from john james, but haven't bothered to try them yet.
   
   
7. Magnetic bored is nice to hold the chart. BUT. I highly suggest get one with a stand. The flat laying one gets annoying. So does it being smaller then the paper size, as the edges get all bent up. Maybe I will buy a better one when I can afford it.
   
   
8. the recommended amount of floss sometimes is not near enough. I don't know what they did their calculations on, but woah. I ran out of the main navy blue color by the first page.
   
   
9. Hobby Lobby is MUCH nicer then joann's in my town for cross stitch.
   
   10 . Hobby lobby has a 90 day return policy. So, after I ran out of floss, I went there, bought a whole handful of the same lot. What I don't use, I can return! As long as I don't put it on a bobbin. This way I make sure to get all I need in the same lot, but don't waste too much money
   
   
10. the bobbin cranks are a waste of money. I will be returning the one I bought. It's just 2 dollars, but it's useless.
    
    I think that is enough lessons for now. Hope everyone is having a great day.

I have a simpler version of this, down to the visible brand markings. I bought it on amazon.com. Here's the link. I thought Etsy was for handmade goods, not wholesale.

Oy... the reviews on it are not great: https://www.amazon.com/Edmunds-Ratchet-Quilt-Frame-12-Inch/dp/B000641ED2
