Large Square Embroidery Hoop, 17inch Plastic Cross Stitch Frame Clip White DIY Sewing Tools Hoops Craft Embroidery Snap Frame Hoop for Cross Stitching Quilting, Needlepoint, Silk-Painting

Works very well. Good size

Works better than anticipated. It is easy to assemble. The claps are a little tight & can be hard to remove but that is what keeps the fabric tight while on the frame. It's larger than the traditional embroidery frames which means I can do more before having to make adjustments.

This is wonderful for quilting. When I received it, I did have to take the sides off and disassemble to slide the pinchers off of the frame. I didn't have enough hand strength to open it up until after I had it attached to my quilt.

I have not used one like this before and was concerned after I got it that it would not fit around a quilt due to the thickness, but it does work! It is very difficult to remove the plastic parts that attach, both at first and when changing to another position on the quilt, that is a draw back and if you don't have much strength it will be difficult. I used a butter knife to pry it up a little. I was using a smaller round wooden hoop before and wanted a little more room so I did not have to reposition it so often and this works for me. But I wish it was easier to take off the quilt--it actually is really easy to put on the quilt, but once you have to take it off again it is kind of hard to do. Does not stretch it out too much and there is not a way to adjust it once you have it set up (make it more taut or straighten out wrinkles etc.), but that has not been an issue for me.

EDIT: I originally gave this product five stars after using for a couple of weeks, but now I have to edit my review. I am nearing the finish line on my quilt and one of the clamps has cracked. It no longer holds efficiently. Quilting with three clamps just isn't good enough. I'll have to find something else. I recommend purchasing something else if you want more than one projects worth out of this frame.This frame works great! I have been using it to hold a quilt sandwich while hand quilting and it's been working perfectly. The pieces were a little difficult to take off at first, but after taking them off and putting back on a handful of times, they loosened up just enough to remove without struggle. It's also a nice size to be able to reach all around.

Difficult to use

Very nice tension. Snaps for each side are tight but still able to get off with out too much difficulty when it needs to be repositioned.

I got this product on a recommendation from a friend. It works great for quilting - holds several layers together and never slips. Easy to put on and take off, and doesn't leave creases or damage to fabric. Excellent item. Sturdy and lightweight.
