The Needlepoint Embroidery Tapestry Scroll Frame from AllAboutEmbroideryUA generally does a good job of keeping fabric secure for cross-stitch work. It doesn't come with a stand, but it's made to fit with any stands from the same brand, so you might want to get one separately if you need it.
The manufacturer says it's made from organic beech wood and offers it in several sizes, the biggest being 15.7" x 22", so you've got options depending on your project.
According to our research, the craftsmanship tends to get a lot of praise. Folks often mention the wood's smooth finish and how durable the frame feels, and many say it holds the fabric tight without leaving deep creases. These features help keep the tension right, especially for detailed cross-stitching.
However, just a heads up, some people have noticed the clips can sometimes slip, not holding certain fabrics as securely as they’d like. But overall, this hasn’t really dampened the positive vibe around its performance. Generally, people find it easy to put together, and the instructions are pretty clear.
Overall, satisfaction with this frame seems quite strong. Its ability to handle various crafting projects and the nice look of its wood build make it an appealing choice if you're after a sturdy and elegant embroidery frame for your cross-stitch projects.
