Please help. A few days ago I saw on a site about hooping with rubber draw lining (thin with small squares). I have looked everywhere and cannot find the site. Have I dreamt it???

Yvonne, I really cannot remember. I have bought some of the draw lining this morning - now I want to use it!!!

You may want to see this link - it is just a picture of a hoop with the non-slip liner, but it may give you an idea.

You can cut a piece of the non-slip drawer lining , hoop it, cut out a rectangle slightly larger than the actual embroidery area and use that to hoop thin fabric together with this non-slip frame you created. It works well. I mostly use strips that I pin around the inner hoop before I hoop the fabric. Works well too, as long as you don't get careless and forget to make sure the pins are on the outside - I have a nice FSL design with some blue rubber stitched in to remind me..

The pictures are on the Criswell K-lace Website.

You can click on each picture for a closer look at each picture.

It shows what the Kitchen shelf liner looks like and the 2 sided, water soluble, Wonder tape.

The nice thing about attaching the Shelf Liner strips & wonder tape to the bottom of the inner hoop is that you don't have to worry about hooping anything else extra with your stabilizer or stabilizer and fabrics.

I cut a sheet of the non slip drawer liner the size I would cut stablilizer. Put it in my hoop and cut the center out to about 3/4 of an inch of the hoop. Put it on your machine and run a trial to make sure your design area is clear. I found this to be more stable and I can take it off when I am hooping something thicker. I made one of these for each of my hoops.
