Example:
One example of how to use the 40*40cm gripper strip frame with fleece cover is for punch needle embroidery. Punch needle embroidery is a technique that creates a textured, almost rug-like effect on fabric. The gripper strips on this frame are ideal for holding the fabric taut while you punch the needle through.
To use the frame for punch needle embroidery, begin by selecting a piece of fabric that is slightly larger than the frame. Stretch the fabric over the gripper strips, making sure it is taut and smooth. Secure the fabric in place by tightening the screws on the gripper strips using the included wrenches.
Once the fabric is secured, thread your punch needle with embroidery floss or yarn. Starting from the back of the fabric, punch the needle through to the front in a straight line or in a pattern of your choice. Repeat this process, creating rows or clusters of stitches until your design is complete.
The gripper strips on the frame will hold the fabric in place, preventing it from slipping or moving as you punch the needle through. The fleece cover will protect your hands from any discomfort or scratches from the metal teeth, making your punch needle embroidery experience more enjoyable.
