i felt so lucky when I found these at the east bay depot, and the price was great. They are the nicest emboidery hoops I’ve ever seen

The outer ring is flexible rubber with a faux bois pattern. They are much easier to deal with than the flat sided wooden or plastic ones, and they wouldn’t look too bad hung up on the wall. I thought I was super-special and a few ebay and google searches revealed that these were pretty widely available in the UK. I smugly thought about how much cooler that made them, but then lamented the fact that I couldn’t get more.

I found them at Michael’s this weekend. When they go on sale… Watch out!! I’m stocking up.

those are so awesome! I need to go to Michaels and see if I can find them. I have the pink scissors too!

I have one of the oval shaped ones (thanks, Michael’s!) and it’s the only embroidery hoop I use anymore. Although I have to wrestle with it every time I put it together. That rubber is hard to pull around the plastic bit once you’ve got a piece of fabric in the way! Or maybe it’s just me?
