{f a q} Frequently Asked Questions
What frame do you stitch on?
- I use a Millennium frame from NeedleNeeds in the U.K.

How do you film your videos?
- I use Final Cut Pro X (Mac) for filming and editing.

What are all of those threads hanging down from your HAED?
- I stitch full coverage using a technique called parking. I highly recommend tutorial videos from Carolyn Mazzeo to learn the technique. If you want to see more about how I do my diagonal blocks, see my full coverage demo playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLi5s2tHW0BxM8SOzgrTCtJeM8O4FjFaTo
