CheckoutTapestry hoop
This is a special hoop that is used to stretch the fabric when embroidering a tapestry. They are usually rectangular in shape and come in large sizes to accommodate large tapestry paintings. Tapestry hoops consist of two parts - lower and upper. The bottom of the hoop is usually flat, while the top has screws on each corner. When the tapestry fabric is placed between two parts of the hoop, the screws on the top of the hoop are tightened to keep the fabric taut and fixed between the hoop. The use of a tapestry hoop allows you to keep the fabric of the tapestry even and wrinkle-free during embroidery, which makes it easier for the embroiderer. They also make it easy to move the fabric as you progress through the job. When choosing a tapestry hoop, it is important to consider the dimensions of the tapestry fabric and choose a hoop that is suitable for a particular job. It is also recommended to choose a hoop made from quality materials such as wood to ensure that it is strong and durable.How to use the tapestry hoop?
To use a tapestry hoop, follow these instructions:- unfold the tapestry fabric on a flat surface, flatten it and compare the dimensions with the dimensions of the tapestry hoop;
- place the bottom of the tapestry hoop on the fabric so that it is flat and free of wrinkles, and then unfold the top of the hoop and place it on top of the fabric;
- tighten the screws on each corner of the hoop to secure the fabric tightly between them;
- if necessary, move the fabric to make sure that it is stretched evenly, without wrinkles or folds;
- start embroidering the tapestry while holding the fabric taut between the hoops;
- as you embroider, loosen the screws on the hoop to release tension on the fabric and move the hoop up to expand the work surface;
- at the end of a day's work or in the middle of a project, loosen the screws on the hoop to relieve tension on the fabric and leave the work on a flat surface.
