The Opus Craft Stand is one of the most popular multi-functional floor standing frames on the market today. It was designed for all needle workers both young and old to securely hold, in any position, embroidery hoops, hand tapestry frame up to 24" (53cm) width and even quilting hoops up to 18" (45cm), thereby eliminating wrist ache, so common after holding frames for long periods, allowing you to work 'hands-free'. By working with the Opus Craft Stand you help to avoid distortion of fabrics and the uneven tension of threads.

The standard Floor frame, originally designed to hold larger pieces of work, cannot adjust to the different positions required when sitting back in an easy chair, and is quite cumbersome. The introduction of Mono stands such as the Opus Craft Stand, means you can now work in a saggy baggy old sofa with your work at a comfortable level reducing back, neck, wrist and eye fatigue, allowing you to embroider well into the early hours.

It is very difficult to find an original style floor frame, with the ability to securely hold frames ranging from the small 4” hoop to the large 24” tapestry frame. Most of the quality mono stands have this versatility, and because they clamp onto hand held frames, allow many projects to be on the go at any one time.

With Opus in particular, it can be used as a table frame. The frame can be reduced right down in size and still retain all the important functions such as the ability to rotate the work frame to finish off on the reverse. When positioned on the table, all the angles can still be adjusted, so that the embroiderer does not have to lean forward over a table, thereby avoiding the dreaded back and neck ache.

As a portable lightweight stand, fully adjustable in angle and height, the user can operate from either a saggy, baggy old sofa or an upright wooden chair, in comfort and totally relaxed.

The sturdy design has included a quick and easy method of viewing the reverse of the work, by simply loosening an 'easy grip' cube and turning the work through 180 degrees.

Opus holds all your own frames. You do not need to purchase special attachments to clamp onto the frame and the 'easy grip' cubes allow even those with weaker hands to comfortably adjust the stand.

There is an Opus Chart Holder specially made for this stand to hold your chart while you work.
