I stitch with frame my large project....				
			
		I use the wooden frame, its a bit heavy, but soon Ill get my floor stand :)))				
			
		I use a hoop is much better				
			
		I started using the hoop... I hated it.I went to the Q-Snap.really liked it but found it bulky... now I use a Grip-n-Stitch / Clip-n-Stitch.
Like the Q-snap it is adjustable, smaller on the frame.and great for packing.I did not like the Grip part of it, so I used it as a clip.Best in hand frame i have used.
I also have a large floor frame (got second hand(and being a cross stitch horder had to have it) but i have never done a large enough project to use it				
			
		I use a floor standing frame for large projects and a table top frame for smaller ones. Ive never mastered a hoop, I always over tighten the screw and my aida goes all skew whiff!				
			
		I definitely vote for q-snap frames. No matter how long I leave it in the frame it does not permanently damage the fabric. I used to use scroll frames, but my projects are getting bigger and bigger, and thus, dont fit.				
			
		small projects get a hoop, but large ones get a scroll frame, unless I want it portable, then even big ones get a hoop				
			
		I don’t do hoops 				
			
		Thanks for the info!				
			
		Very Nice!!
