Hi there all Cuties!

Its been such a long break for me since I last posted a project! Still have been too busy with other stuff so couldnt get much done but I am excited as I have purchased the 2 optional hoops of my Janome mc350e! :)
The cute little free arm hoop...so far seems it will be pretty handy for quick little touches here n there!
The other is Gigahoop....just wanted to have it although I read all the reviews of people who found it very difficult to work with! For the purpose I wanted it would probably be very simple to do(just wanted to avoid rehooping)...that is how I feel after trying my 1st stitchout using it! :)
If any of you have these and used it and can give any tips or suggestions. ...I would be very happy! :)
Its great to be back on Cute and hope to be doing a lot more projects soon! :)

1. My 1st try with the gigahoop!
2. Machine in action with the gigahoop!
3. Some FSLs I embroidered but didn't get a chance to rinse yet! ;)
4. Used the tiny freearm hoop to squeeze in the 2 FSL flowers in the gaps and saved some WSS! :)

Brilliant all of them Fatima. Welcome back I've missed seeing all your beautiful work. Congrats on getting the giga-hoop, you will have lots of fun with all the things you can do now. I've not used my largest hoop which is 14x9, but that is the Brother one. I tend to use my Husqvarna for most things. Just that I've had it longer and it's a workhorse! Love Chris

Carolyn the gigahoop is specially for some models of janome...like mine is mc350e which can do a max 5×7!
So the gigahoop stitches in 2 parts and gives approximately 8×9 inches!
Thanks for looking :)

I have both the hoops you have purchased. I have used the giga hoop and it is great, but I have yet to give the free arm one a try out. I love what you have done here. Welcome back. Hugs Shirley

These are beautiful. I have a friend with the Gigahoop for her Janome 10000 but has never tried to use it. Sorry
