I Built a Giant PVC Embroidery Frame

I made myself a giant adjustable embroidery frame out of PVC that I'm using to work on my wedding dress. Also please don't get upset if you're a legit tambour embroiderer and you're scandalized by this very not authentic frame. I only have so much time and money to dedicate to this process.

To make sure your material is straight and taught, put 1st clamp in the middle on side of frame where you sit, then go to opposite end of frame and attach clamp directly opposite the 1st clamp pulling material tight. Now go to one of the long sides and repeat, tightening as you go. Same for the remaining side. Go back to the side where you started, and place a clamp 1/2 way between the middle clamp and the nearest corner. Repeat on other side. Repeat on remaing 3 sides, adjusting tension as you go. If you need more tension put on more clamps. If your clamps are opposite each other, add more clamps if you want. Just remember that each clamp needs an opposite clamp to keep even tension. If this is too confusing, look up how a quilter keeps the layers of a quilt straight before binding. (I apologize for the length.)

That’s exactly how I was taught to stretch a canvas when I took painting classes and we had to stretch our own canvases 😊 very good advice!

Do it in the way that puts the fewest stumbling blocks for you. If making videos will slow you down, don't. But if they give you a break and prevent burnout, go for it! Either way, I'll watch it!

What kind of netting do you use?

I stitched on a really fine tulle. I used the Casa Collection stretch tulle from Joann. I don't recommend using something with a stretch, but it was what I had and it ended up not causing too many problems.

Now were those q-snaps?

@threadandneedlefish Жыл бұрын

I think they're the same as Q snaps, but buying them as PVC snap clamps from the hardware store was cheaper for me.
