Two Handed Stitcher

Yipee! I am now a two handed stitcher. DH put together my needlework stand, and I was able to attach my scroll frame. The stand was a cheap one, mainly as a tester to see if I really like it before I get a good one. Thus, it's not really made for my heavy scroll frame. But, Daniel was able to tighten all the nuts and bolts enough to get it to stay in place. There's just one problem... it completely blocks my view of the TV. So I'll have to remember to keep one small in hand project around, for when I actually want to see what's going on. :)

  1. Two handed stitching is the best. You can really stitch fast can't you? I'd love one of those stands but it won't fit under my chair. So I just stitch on scroll rods on my lap and balance it on the arms of the chair. You could try that too. Now you're really going to fly with your projects.

  2. Oh jeeze - totally did not make it back to your blog until today. I am so sorry. Maybe I need to make notes on which give-away I sign up for. You most certainly don't have to send me anything. I am totally sorry if I caused you any bad feelings. I enjoy reading your blog , its your title that made me just laugh out loud.

    Take care.

  3. I don't use those scroll frames, but blocking my TV? That would never do. I only stitch while watching TV. Hopefully you can find a way to adjust it.

  4. You know, I have a stand but I never use it. I find it so awkward! I'm glad it works for you :o)
