Needle In A Haystack
                - Stands & Frames

Lap & Floor Stands come in a variety of materials from a number of great vendors. We can obtain these from K's Creations & Needlework System 4. In some cases we carry the items in the shop or we can arrange to have them drop shipped directly to you from our suppliers. If you have questions on what might work best for your stitching needs, feel free to contact us by phone or e-mail.

Needlework System 4
We stock a few of the components and you can visit the shop to take one for a spin.

Grooved ConnectorNeedlework System 4 is comprised of several components which mix and match. For the "base" you can use a Floor Stand, Travel Mate, Lap/Table Stand or Table Clamp. Then you can add a Stretcher Bar Clamp, Scroll Frame Holder, Q-Snap Holder, Extension Arm or Light/Magnifier Holder. Other accessories are the Scissor Tray and the Pattern Holder, which use the Light/Magnifier Holder. All of the components use a grooved connector to keep them firmly attached.

We don't currently list all of the options available but these are the most popular. Visit the Needlework System 4 website for all of the various components, which we can order for you.

Shipping Note: If you're not local to us, we'll have your order drop shipped directly to you - shipping is via UPS from Florida. If you are ordering for International shipment, contact us so we can determine the most economical method for shipping. Each of the major components will come up in the cart as a separate "box" but the shipping is typically less via UPS since either we or NS4 can bundle them together in one shipment (which the cart can't figure out).

Read our Needlework System 4 Stand review for help with your selections and where you'll find more photos. Or give us a call during store hours and we'll be happy to help you with your choices.

We also have a video on our YouTube channel showing how to connect pieces to the stands and turn the bar clamp to get to the back side.

Rug Frame

The Rug Scroll Frame is used in conjection with 2 Floor Stands or 2 Travel Mates (sold separately). This is ideal for large projects where you need a stable but light weight solution. The side bars rotate so you can swivel your project to get the to back of it.

The full Rug Frame comes with 56" scroll rods (and the shipping is expensive because of that). $160 for rug frame and 56in rods.

If you have large scroll rods already and just need the side bars to pair with 2 stands, you can order them separately. $155

We only special order the Rug Frame.
