I have just been into projects and seen a towel that Nini has done using the free X stitch border. My question is - only having a 4x4 hoop is there a nack of getting the border straight? I have looked at some tutorials but cannot find anything. Thank you in advance.

Good Question. I'm also wondering what kind of tricks/tips you can have for that.

I put wash away dots on my hoop and corresponding marks on article I am embr. so when I rehoop I can go back to exactly where I stopped. Make sure when you rehoop the needle is exactly where it was when you stopped to rehoop. Sounds difficult but it really isn't. I know other cuties who are smarter than I am can probably tell you another way but this has always worked for me./Lillian
