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.
