Being a floor stand, you can use it whowever you like to stitch, and the Posilock system makes it very stable once you are set up, even if you are working on a large project with a lot of weighty fabric — which makes it a great choice for quilters as well as a tapestry frame.
You can even use the stand with hoops if you want to — large embroidery hoops or small ones. This gives you the versatility of a two handed stitching experience, whatever the size of your project and however you feel like sitting and stitching for that particular day. The stand comes disassembled for easier postage, but is not the most portable once put together, so, beyond moving it out into the garden on kind weather days, this is not an accessory to get out and about with.

The tapestry frame inside is secured to the carry case by an elasticated strap, to provide extra stability when the Lapman embroidery frame is in use.
The fabric is attached to the tapestry frame with simple plastic clips, and the scrolling top and bottom bars on the tapestry frame ensure you can get the correct fabric tension and secure placement.
