I'm trying to persuade him to make me a better one!<br /><br />I'm using a smaller size (11 x 11 inch) for my CQ for some time now. It works great for me. You can adjust the tension very easy. If I don't stitch, I keep the fabric in the frame and just loosen the tension. Putting the fabric in the frame is not easy at first, but if you know how it works, it works very well. There's also a smaller size (8 x 8 inch). And you can combine the parts of the different sizes to make a rectangle. Hope this helps.<br />Annethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06938803180320247229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3426634122335179182.post-20205205667950302282014-11-17T16:53:32.836+01:002014-11-17T16:53:32.836+01:00Thanks, Deepa.
