Review on 12-Piece Set of 8-Inch Round Embroidery Hoops - GIEMSON Bamboo Circle Cross Stitch Hoops for Art Craft Sewing and Embroidery Projects by Morgan Gilmore

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not my favorite hoop

I ordered this one when I couldn't find the 8" bamboo hoop at my local craft store and it's definitely not the same quality. They are very difficult to pull apart as the pin that pulls them together feels too tight and when they come loose the outer ring is so deformed that it is difficult to put them back together. So far I have used two of the hoops from this order and both had this problem and really needed needle nose pliers to retighten the hoop once it was around my fabric. They didn't impress me, but they get the job done.

Pros
  • Handcrafted
Cons
  • Obsolete
