Have you seen the new Hoop Guard at Ann The Gran? It is used to hold excess fabric, out of the way, while emb onesies, tees, etc. On special till July 3rd I think, for $14.99-she makes it look easy to attach. Does someone already have this??? If so give us your opinion..do you like or dislike?

I don't have it but sounds like a great idea! I see more of those baby onesies in my future! I'd also like some feedback if someone has tried it!

I'd like to hear what others think too, before buying, but yesterday I had to hold that size 3 tee out of the way and my arms got heavy. I didn't have any kind of clips to use that wouldn't be in the way.

This sounds great. I just watched a video on it and it looks like they are a flexible plastic for use in standard hoops. I'm not sure how long they wood hold up before breaking at the line where the flex. I too would love to hear from someone that has used them.

Toogie they look very simple. Think I would try them but with post ect to the UK it makes them expensive
by toogie 27 Jun 2015
Sure would! I didn't realize shipping overseas was so costly.

It would have helped me yesterday, on Nora's little tee shirt dress, while embroidering the owl number. I wonder if they'll send me one to try......probably would..... after I send the funds!-lol-but then that would mean, I'd have to make another dress!-lol

Buy through Paypal and you can return if you don't like it. These are made by the lady from Designs in Machine Embroidery. Hugs. Nan W

I have them...save your money...really hard to use and get them positioned correctly...I tried them once on a onesie...only once...then back in the box...waste of time and money...

After seeing the video I'm sure there is some thing around the house that would be a substitute!!! How about any bubble plastic, like over batteries, we could cut the long sides off and keep the short top piece to push into the hoop..... ???

Shipping overseas is too high. I found that out a year or two ago.
