Ever see people using felt in between their work and the Q Snap Frame? It is for a purpose. And it is cheap. One piece of felt cut into quarters can protect your stitches from those sometimes rough edges of your Q Snaps. Also, if you feel like the tension holding your fabric in your Q Snap has become too loose, the extra bulk from the felt helps with that too. You can even go crazy and add two layers if so desire!
Supplies Needed:
- Q Snap
- At least one piece of felt (depends on the size of your frame)
- Scissors (Here I am using pinking shears because I have them)
- Your Cross Stitch Fabric
Step 1
With your scissors, cut each piece of felt in half. If using pinking shears, pink all around the edges of your felt first.
Step 3
Since we do not want too much fabric hanging over onto our work, cut your new pieces of fabric again, making them a fourth of your original width. Trim length to size for your Q Snap Frame.
Step 4
Place cut pieces of fabric in between working fabric and Q Snap. And you are done!
I hope this is helpful to you and happy stitching!
