Hoops

6" x 6" Q-SNAP FRAME / HOOP

Q-Snap frames are a stitcher's dream! Made of pvc tubing, they have four half-pipes that snap over your fabric and the tubed frame. They are incredibly lightwieght, hold fabrics nice and tight, and best of all: the round tube won't crimp your fabric. Originally designed for quilters, they now offer hand-held sizes for embroidery and cross-stitch. I also think this model is especially easy for little hands to use!

Also available in 11"x11" and 11"x17"

✓ Light as a feather
✓ Holds fabric supertight
✓ Won't crimp fabric
✓ Easy to hold - great for children!

This size is especially great for that large project you've been stitching (so you don't have to keep moving your hoop around).

9" OVAL HOOP

Stitchers need hoops of various sizes (for variously sized stitchings), and an oval hoop is super handy to have -and super hard to find. Perfect for embroidering words and sayings! Measures 4" x 9". This is one of my favorite hoops, second only to this one.

7" CLOVER HOOP

I have a craft crush on this hoop. The size is perfect for nearly any project, it holds fabric securely, and because it's chunkier than other hoops, it's easier to hold in your hand. I can't recommend it enough! This is the hoop I always grab first. If you are an avid stitcher, meet your new best friend.

And yes~ it's more expensive than your typical hoop, but it's so worth it!

✓ Sturdy, hard plastic
✓ Screw cover (to prevent catching your floss as you work)
✓ From Japan!

WOOD EMBROIDERY HOOP

I started embroidering on a wood hoop just like this one. Simply
stretch fabric taut across like a drumhead and you're ready to stitch. 4" is a good travelin' size! And hey - there's a hoop just like this in the La Petite Embroidery Kit!
