  • John James tapestry needle (size 18)

The printed design has a wide border of blank canvas all around, allowing you to enlarge it or add personal details, perhaps a festive message, in the border.

Choosing  a Tapestry Frame

Using a tapestry frame will help to prevent your work from going out of shape, as well as making it easy to resume stitching the next day or after a break as you don't have to unravel a crumpled up tapestry and find where you left off. 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.

Merry Christmas Robins will fit on a CF189 frame, which is 18" wide with 9" sidebars. Perhaps choose a wider frame, either CF219 or CF249 if you plan to stitch larger tapestries in the future.
