Focus on hoops
Continuing the series where I pick out some of my blog posts to share with you, this month's theme is hoops.
An embroidery hoop is one of the basic tools for embroidery but if you've not looked into the different parts of an embroidery hoop then I've outlined the anatomy of an embroidery hoop and the basics of using an embroidery hoop.
I try and buy good quality embroidery hoops but occasionally you get one that it a bit wonky and in this blog I outline how to deal with a wonky hoop.
Hoops are a great way to display your finished embroidery and this blog post looks at different ways to finish the back of an embroidery hoop.
I've got plenty of other blog posts about hoops (and other aspects of embroidery) so I encourage you to browse through the embroidery tips page on my website.
