Great Product

End slots fit together tightly. Lightweight and effective for tacking fabric to maintain tension.

Great product allows you to size the frame to your work.

Over the years I've purchased many Edmunds Stretcher Bars. I must have a set in every size! Every set has been high quality.<br /><br />The bars fit together easily and they stay in place while you work. I do prefer the regular width bars, which are wider, stronger and give more support than the mini version. Unless you have a specific project requiring mini bars, I would recommend Edmunds standard bars.<br /><br />Each set contains two bars of the same length. To make a frame for your project, you will need an additional set. The bars are sold in sets of two, allowing you to make any size frame. Remember that your frame needs to be at least two inches larger than your canvas. For example, to make a frame for an 8 x 10 inch canvas, you will need one set of 10 inch bars and one set of 12 inch bars.<br /><br />Hope you these bars will help you as much as they have helped me!<br /><br />Note: Stretcher bars are always sold as sets of two. How else could you make the right size for your project???

I'm now 76 years old - I've been needlepointing since I was 21 years old. I can remember how &#34;out of square&#34; my finished piece would be UNTIL I learned about the stretch bars. I have a trunk full of them because I always have 2 or 3 pieces of needlepoint in the works at any given time.

Love these stretcher bars. Have never had any problems with any of the sizes purchased. Always arrive in good condition in a timely manner.

These are cheaper here then any store. People should READ descriptions of items before they buy. It states EXACTLY how long, wide , and how many there are in a pack. These hold your needlepoint mesh/ canvas with tacks. It is easier to stitch and can then be framed with out the mesh becoming lop sided. Also, some patterns are not exact squares. I have several that are 10x16. That is why they sell them 2 per box.

I have ordered from Edmunds many times and never been disappointed with the stretcher bars. I have many sizes but still find I need more. So thanks, Edmunds, for being there.

Very good quality

Bars are in good shape.

I order these for my needle point canvas , they work great nice smooth wood , fits together great

Perfect, just what I needed.

works well

Just what I wanted

Just what I was looking for. These are the heavy duty 3/4 inch thick kind.

Perfect. Easy to put together and sturdy to use.

Exactly what I needed. Great service and good prices as well. I would purchase from this supplier again.

I was looking for basic stretcher strips for my needlepoint, and these really fit the bill. They are simple to put to put together, and the price is quite reasonable. I can just staple the fabric onto the bars and start stitching. It can be hard to find stretcher bars in my rural area, so these are a really great find for me. I think the price is quite reasonable, and since the bars come is sets of two same size bars, you can get just the size you need, for say 8 by 10 or smaller or larger. ( if you are using them as a stitching frame, be sure to get a size large enough to be able to stitch to the edge of the design and still have enough fabric or canvas to staple to the frame and hold while stitching.) You can also use these strips to mount finished needlework for framing. Again, be thoughtful about the size(s) you need. Then, you can staple the finished work to the stretcher strips and finish out the project with cording, fabric, or other sorts of trim to frame the work and cover the strips.

very good

Fit well and are sturdy.
