Choosing a Tapestry Frame
A tapestry frame is not essential but using one can help to prevent your canvas from going out of shape. A frame also makes it easy to resume stitching the next day or after a break. We stock a great range of British made easy to assemble no-sew tapestry clip frames. The canvas is attached by strong clips, allowing you to easily switch projects if necessary.
If going on holiday, just take off the side bars and roll up your canvas - hey presto, ready to travel. For the A-Z Animals range of tapestry kits, we recommend a CF189 tapestry frame, as a smaller CF129 will be a bit of a squeeze. Choose a larger frame with code ending in '9' if you are likely to stitch cushion sized designs in the future.
