“Thank you so much Kelly and team. I am delighted with my Lockdown work! And they have been so beautifully transformed into cushions. The Roses one has taken pride of place on our bed. The birds one is off to my daughter’s new flat, and the dogs’ cushion is safely perched on the back of their favourite sofa!!”

Choosing a Tapestry Frame

A tapestry frame is not essential but does help to prevent your work going out of shape and makes it easy to resume stitching the next day or after a break. We stock a good range of British made no-sew tapestry clip frames which only take a few minutes to assemble. As the canvas is attached by easy clips, the frames allow you to switch between projects if necessary.

For Dachshund Stripes, we recommend a CF189 frame or choose a CF219 or CF249 frame if you might stitch something larger in the future. A 12" frame will be a bit of a squeeze.

See all our frames here in our Tapestry Frames and Accessories category.
