Well you could purchase a Stitch Away Fabric Mount which is probably cheaper
than a Pizza (depending on the topping) and a lot less fattening.
Then with the money you save by the reduced amount of blocking a framer will
charge you for before framing you can order your Pizza, you might say that

Ah, better explanation WRT punchneedle. Which reauires really, really, taut
fabric. I like the clover thumbscreww hoop for that - it's a bit sturdier
than the Susan Bates. And I'm not up for the expensive frames - which are
awesome if you do a lot of punchneedle (they have like a strip of wire brush
- reminiscent of a dog brush attached to a wood frame and the fabric is
gripped onto the wire).

Don't think I'd want to use it if working with something where I'd
have to move the fabric. That "gripper" looks like a lot of tiny
pins.

That's because it's velcro, I believe.

I'd still be very cautious - I've seen velcro do a number on
materials.
