Q-Snap Q-Snap Extension Kit

This brand of snap frames is the best I've found. The extender rod itself can be used with most if not all rods in the line. I plan to extend frames to rectangular shapes for rectangular projects. While some of the connections can be a tiny bit slippery, the clips hold them together and hold the fabric well for long periods of stitching. The clips can either be pulled off or slid off the end nearest the edge of the fabric. The frames do not warp, crease, or otherwise damage the Aida I use for my stitching. I defiantly recommend this product and the rest of the line.

Had numerous 11x11 Qsnap sets. Wanted to try the larger size snaps to see if I liked them and they would work in my Lowery stand. They are working great, and with the extensions I have worked with 11x14 and today I am working with 11x17, so far very satisfied with these extensions

and on up the experience ladder. This is perfect for those projects that I need a little more working room. Always high quality and easy to use. I have been doing counted cross stitch for over 20 years and in my experience the Q-snap frames are best for working on both aida AND linen fabrics, leaving no "dents" or over stretching on the fabric. With this type of frame it is very important that you do all bead work last and some of it may need to be done "in hand" so as to avoid any possible damage to the beads. This is the only draw back I have ever heard of with the Q-snap frames although I have never experienced it myself even when I have used it to finish off my beading.

working on a larger cross stitch piece and these extensions to my basic Q snap set is perfect! Easy to add on and the entire system is the best for needlework. Keep projects tight and secure, but easy to remove when needed. Excellent product!

Clamps are a little tight, but I believe they will loosen with use.

I was very happy with the 11" Q-snap for cross-stitching. Kept work taut and left no lines. Purchased the extension kit for larger projects but did not fit my 11". Both are Q-snap, but they are noticeably different. I did also get a 17" frame and it is the same design as the extension kit. However, the clamps are so hard to remove, I almost tore the cloth. Would like to find the original?? design as it worked very well.

I ordered a new set and the one I received was repackaged in kitchen plastic wrap. These are more expensive than other sites; but I wanted the item faster than other carriers. I did not order a used item.

I bought this on April 2 in hopes of turning my 8x8 into an 11x11. The price of the 11x11 went up several dollars from when I purchased mine which was disappointing. I'm sure this works great for turning an 11x11 into a 14x14 but I haven't tested that out yet. The clamps provided are too big to use with an 11x11 (the 8x8 clamps are too small). I haven't decided if I want to return these and just purchase another 11x11.
