K's Creations started the same way the majority of needlework companies start, as a hobby. As so many stitchers do, Kay experienced fatigue while stitching. Being an engineer, Gaylon knew he could come up with better way for her to hold her needlework. After several prototypes the Original Adjustable LapFrame was created.

Since 1987, K's Creations has grown from exhibiting at local craft shows to distributing through thousands of retail outlets in the US, Australia, Mexico and Canada. Our little business has grown from the dinning room table and front porch shipping dock to our current modern manufacturing facility.

From design to finished product, K's Creations utilizes the latest technology and machinery to ensure the superior level of quality and service that K's is known. All of K's products are hand finished to guarantee quality.
