Cross Stitch frame

[Stevenp]

G'day all, My daughter has recently taken up Cross stich and has asked Me to build a Cross stich frame. This wont be hard , if I knew what one looked like :rolleyes: Apparently it is a floor mounted thing that adjusts to allow her to sit in a chair and have the frame close to her so she can do her thing and most likely watch telly at the same time. A bit like an artists easel I suppose.
Has anyone made one of these? I would love to see a pic of one , or better still , find a plan for one. Any help greatfully appreciated
Cheers Steven.

If you google "tapestry frame" rather than cross stitch you might get some hints.:)

Just got a request from my sister to see if I can make her a frame like this The Doodler Frame > Stitching Frames/Stands > Accessories - The Fox Collection - Australia's premier online needlework and craft catalogue (http://www.foxcollection.com.au/Product_Detail.aspx?ParentCategoryID=148&CategoryID=207&ProductID=33979)
Will have to see if I can make do some sketches to get the same frame size to get the 25cm working window..
