Morgan lap stand - collapsed


otterine

I have a wonderful wooden Baby Z Lap Frame to hold my needlework projects. It's portable and well made. It is relatively heavy, but that works well to hold it in place while in use. I also have a Morgan No-Slip hoop that holds the fabric tight.

Well, I now have a Morgan Lap Stand. This set has two no-slip embroidery hoops and extenders to create a lap frame. There are many sizes available, but I chose the 7" and 9" set. You can use the stand with either the large or small hoop as the base.

This is especially nice for French knot work or if you want to rotate the work at all. It can be used either on your lap or on a tabletop. You can also use either hoop by itself. These will fit in my wooden lap frame, too.

It collapses for travel and storage, though you'll need a bag to keep all the pieces together.

Why am I hiding the start of this rug? It's a secret...you'll see it in December. :O

That is super practical *trotting off to Amazon*....... I hate having to balance the hoop against the table top and my lap when I'm doing French knots!

I'm terrible at French knots... any other tips? I feel like I just cheat by putting another stitch through the center of it after I've wrapped and pulled it through so it will stay....

It's just takes practice. I've done one Teresa Layman rug in mini, and now I have the hang of it. That's not to say I don't still pull them through from time to time.
