I made my own qsnaps from pvc. I couldn't find the right kind to make the snap holders so I did have to order those (it was still waaaay cheaper). I made just about every size there was, but when I tried doing an 11 and 8 x17, it was just too long. I use my 11x11 and 14x14 ALOT. I stitch in a recliner and can pull a leg up to help balance it.

I find the 8x8 is just a little too small for my liking and I have to move my fabric too often. My go to is the 11x11 for almost everything that isn't a really small project.
