Choosing a Tapestry Frame
A tapestry frame is not essential but using one will help to prevent your work going out of shape. A frame makes it easy to resume stitching the next day or after a break. We stock a good range of British made no-sew tapestry clip frames which take only a few minutes to assemble. The canvas is attached by sturdy clips, allowing you to switch between projects if necessary.
For African Tiles, we recommend either a CF219, CF2112, CF249 or a CF2412 frame. Choose the CF249 or CF2412 if you may stitch larger designs in the future.
