7/14/13 * I finally tried my first ITH Purse by Suedewsbury. They are so addictive. I plan to make so more. I made two for my bff daughter and myself. They only problem I have is that the elastic always come out. I used the round small type...FIESTA

Beautiful purses! Amazing color choices too.
When I do an In the hoop project that has elastic or ribbon, I reinforce it by going over that area several times. Then, after unhooping, I like to overcast the seams in that area too. Just a bit of extra work but it does help secure that elastic or ribbon.
Hope that suggestion helps!

Congratulations - now you, too, will be addicted to ITH projects. They look great!!
By the way, I have had the same problem with elastic or ribbons at one time or another. As chattypenny said, just reinforce the seams in those areas and they should hold for you. Can't wait to see what you do next ITH!!

I really like the one with the Urban Threads design!
With the elastic problem. Try to stop your machine just after it has stitched across it on the final outline and go back a few stitches before restarting your machine. Then, when you cut way the fabric before turning it all through, try not to cut through the elastic, leaving long ends inside. The problem is that it unravels if it is too short.
