Today I received an email stating that Emblibrary published my Tip of the Day:

Looks like you've done it again. Even though many of us may do it that way already....we didn't get it out there to others like you did! Way to go!

CONGRATULATIONS SHIRLENE!!! Well done, it's great to get recognised for your efforts. Love and blessings Chris

Kathy, thank you *4U

congrats!!!! I always do that just seemed easier to slide that 1 edge off the table than to pick the whole thing up. But very good for others who didn't know!!!!

Thank you Michele. *4U

I never really thought about the way I hoop but I think I do this almost everytime without thinking. Expecially the part about off the table but mine was to keep the screw from making a dent in my table when I pushed the last corner into the hoop. lol

Becky, thanks - smart to do it for that reason, too.

I saw your Tip of the day this morning. I always check there to see if another cutie has been chosen. Congratulations and keep them coming.

Hehehe & thanks!

Been hooping that way with the wooden hoops for hand cross-stitch for years so that is what I did with the embroidery machine hoop when I got one. There have been a lot of questions regarding hooping problems so your tip should help those that struggle with hooping. Congratulations!!!

Thank you Anita, glad to know - that is a good way to hoop. Hehehe!

Congrats Shirlene. This is the way I always do my hoops. I am sure a lot of new beginners will be glad to get this tip.

Thanks Mildred, I hope so.

From Shirlene: Are you having trouble with your hooping? Try making sure that the screw side of your hoop is the last edge that you insert, keeping the inside hoop nearest the screw. Then, when you are ready to tighten it, slip the hoop off the edge of your table or work surface, so you can tighten the screw without raising the hoop away from the table or work surface.
