Please Help me!!!!

I figured that would get everybody's attention.

I have been a needlepointer for years. Well I have gotten old and had to buy a light with a magnifing glass so I can see to still needlepoint. I enjoy needlepoint and have alway thought I would like a needlepoint stand to make it easier. So this is where all of you come in.

1)Have any of you ever made a needlepoint stand.
2)If so do you still have the plans so Sam might be able to build me one
3)I would like one that would work for a Lazy Boy and a left handed sticher. (not sure that matters)

Thanks for you help I know I can count on you guys.

Never built one myself, but I found some assembly instructions online that Sam should be able to reverse engineer.

Well, shoot, add a couple lever arms to that and it can do double duty as a sandbox toy too.

If asked to imagine what a needle point holder might look like, I would not have been anywhere close, I guess that just goes to show how smart the other folks around here are...

How would a needlepoint point stand compare to a quilting hoop? I know there are several types of quilting hoops with stands that are very adjustable. Maybe Sam could look at some of those and come up with a plan. You might put him on to build a new recliner with a built in needlepoint stand

Ken,

That is very funny. This is the one I saw on line that got me to post this thread. I have emailed it to Sam and he hasn't had a chance to read it yet. So we will see how much trouble "we" are both in.

Thom,

Ken and I thought we were in trouble but I thank you because you just took the heat for us.

Yeah, whew, thanks Thom.
Adele, we definitely want to see 'in progress' pics of Sam building that multi-jointed thing-a-mo-jig, especially his face!

Ken,

Don't hold your breath I have been waiting for him to build me a bed for 12 years or so.

Maybe a few (dozen) nights on the couch might"wake" him up.

Wouldn't the couch be a step up from the floor?
