Recently we have been asked to help customers get their canvases tighter on their scroll bars. We think we have located a product that will solve this problem, so we are introducing the Tension Collar.  This is a metal collar that attaches to one of the dowels on your scroll bar and allows you to get greater tension on your dowel to tighten them further than you can do by hand.

The Tension Collar is easy to install, and we noticed a difference in our ability to tighten the scroll bars another couple of twists. They do recommend that you release the tension when you are done stitching.

The tension collar is in the photo below with the tools provided.  We hope this solves a problem that some of you are experiencing.  Come into the store to try the Tension Collar! If you bring your scroll bars we are happy to install the Tension Collar for you.

Enjoy your stitching!
