Some fabrics are more difficult to hoop than others or should not be hooped at all, since hooping can damage the fabric. Thick and course fabrics can be difficult to hoop but also thin and glossy fabrics. Hooping ready to wear garments is also difficult or impossible due to seams, narrow areas or buttons/rivets.  When using the creative™ Metal Hoop 180x130mm hooping these fabrics won't be a problem!

The Creative Quilter's Metal Hoop is perfect for when you want to embroider on larger projects and stitch out larger designs. The metal hoop design and included 8 magnets allow you to hoop challenging projects easily no matter if it's large quilt blocks, a pillow front, part of a jacket or even fabric that you cannot hoop conventionally such as leather or velvet.
