Will this frame work for needlepoint? I'm one of those needle people who have to turn the work upside down to stitch in the opposite direction.

This should work for you. I've used these for lots of cross stitching projects, and I love the portability of the frames.

Who knows? All I know is that it works! It magnifies needlepoint very nicely; you won't regret getting it. I use mine all the time. You loosen or tighten the cord that it hangs from around your neck to get the level of magnification you need.

I BOUGHT this for counted needle point (can't see like I did 20 years ago!), and it works great. Appreciate the flip up as my eyes switch from instructions to 'the work in progress.'

Love the bed, but hated the frame. I ended up bending the frame by pulling the footboard (bottom) in while sitting on the mattress. The only other solution was buying another frame, which I decided against. It looks fine once it is made up and I hardly notice that it (frame) was too long on one side. Still love the bed and get compliments on it every time I show the loft where it is being used. Thanks, rcaldwellgarrick@gmail.com

I have not used it on needlepoint but I would try it if I found the need to in the future. It is very mild but works quite well- got a stain out of gray plush carpet that had been there for 4 yrs.

I usually heat my needles up to go from a tight 7RL to a 7RL loose Liner or tight 9RL to a 9RL loose Liner to get a boxier thick line and it works just fine. The armature bar / springs work fine for what it is, but I updated mine with better replacement parts as the frame was solid but it needed tuning for sure. If your machine isn't working with bigger size needles, you may need to adjust your front spring / contact to get a bigger or lesser throw. Try it out...

Hi There, Unfortunately Im not sure what other needles will work on that particular cartridge. Im using the ortolan pro stylus. If it looks like it could work you could buy and return. I have done that move before with other cartridges. Good luck,

it will work upside down, you have to just cover the hole when turning it over.

It tells you on the screen what foot is best to use with that stitch, but I have ignored that in the past. I doesn't know what foot is on the machine, so it can't stop you from sewing. I don't know if you damaged your machine (somehow) while using the wrong foot would mean that your warranty would be invalidated, though.

The hand is too thick, I don't think it would work with the needle, but maybe you can tape it to the costume, or you can make one with a disposable glove, fill it and paint it? I hope you can work it out!!! byeeeee

it does have a 1/4 - 20 thread that you could use to hang it upside down. BUT it will still turn in the same direction. I tried.

I use Sew What Pro computer software along with the large hoop (they have a free 30 day trial, but I purchased it for $65 and it's SO WORTH IT). This allows you to edit the embroidery/appliqu to where it doesn't/does overlap how you want it to. You can do an appliqu in position 1 on the hoop and then move it to position 2 or 3 and put a name under the appliqu, etc. without re-hooping the fabric. It's amazing!

I think it would, it has a screw on clamp that holds really tight. Mine is on a level end table; I use it for my needle point and it works "excellent".It's the best purchase I ever made. And I made plenty of purchases regarding magnifying glasses for my needle points. And it swivels and bends and has a "really" bright light! I'm very pleased with it.

I've found two that work. I'm pretty stoked! I'm getting out a Sharpie to mark those bad boys! You have to either remove the plastic thingie on the plunge base or get one longer screw to make it work. I haven't broken anything, but one of the holes is not backed by metal - be careful not to over tighten it because you will break the jig. The other hole is backed by a metal shelf - you can be a bit more aggressive with it. It also seems to work with the smaller Jasper 400 jig.

Just tried it. You can write maybe 1 or 2 sentences upside-down. I recall the Fisher pens being able to do it forever. I don't do a lot of supine writing, though.

Beginner here: Based on a few things that I have made, I have to agree that these multi needle tools might be best suited for flat works. But I have made a few 3D ones with this multi-needle tools and it turned out fine. But because I had to push down with a twist motion for the needles to come out, my completed projects were more compact. It was a bit harder to control and I ended up stabbing myself a few times.

I tried my 1500 yd sulky rayon embroidery thread on my 120 spool rack, and the pegs are not spaced far enough apart to put them side by side. I can fit them on, but need to leave every other peg either empty, or with a regular spool of thread in between (like Guterman274 yd or Coats & Clark 250 yd regular thread). If you want to fill all pegs with the larger embroidery threads, get the 33 or 60 Cone spool rack.
