I took the plunge & bought one. Can I attach it to my stand? It has the top clamp.

Well I don't see any reason why it would not other than the clamp is crunching down on your fabric and beads will be a problem for you as well. You will
need the stretcher bars of course.

"stretcher bars" are the name given to the side bars. So, if you just ordered the rods, you'll have to order stretcher bars and knobs to make
it a working set. If you ordered a whole scroll frame complete - then you'll be ready to go.

okay. I've got the whole set. It's a smaller one (fits a FQ) to try it out. If I like it I'll get a bigger one for my FH. Since I finished my first
2 on Boo Club I put Luna Fairy on it &figured I try it out on her.
ETA: Is there a special way to attach it? It seems awfully tight across the fabric? Melinda ![]() ![]()

Yep, I want the fabric tight, but I am worried that it will put a whole in the fabric where the clamp ends.

If you're worried about that you could always just make sure that the fabric is shorter than the clamp.

Vanessa: I haven't had a problem with my q-snap as I attach the clamp right to the pvc. I guess I could also try rolling the fabric the other way &
seeing if there is a difference.
Erin: That's a custom piece that Lori (at EF) made for me.If you e-mailed her she probably remembers what colors she used. I told her I would like a dark blue going into a dark purple. (I wanted the feel you get when watching the scene from Sleeping beauty.) Chicca68: I bought the scroll rods from the local Jo-Ann's. Amanda: Thanks for the advice. I'll give that a try when I get a bigger set of rods. (Right now all I have is one that fits a FQ.) Melinda ![]() ![]()
