I finally got brave enough to pull out my snap hoop ruler. So thankful I found this video to show me how to apply the rulers. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.

Gee, as much as we paid for these you would like the factory would have these placed!

I think they leave the rulers off the hoops so you can decide if you want them. Most standard hoops do not have rulers but instead grids. The magnetic hoops don't have grids so they provide optional rulers

Thank you! I love my SnapHoop last month and have used it a good bit, but was hesitant to apply the rulers. This was a great help!

This was SUPERB! I bought my first THREE snap hoops before you posted this and really struggled with this. I just bought the Sticky hoop for some embroidery for my daughter's wedding bridal party PJs (translation - don't want to scrrew them up) - I have looked at a lot of KZfaq videos and even looked at the DIME blog and couldn't find anything. So thank you, thank you, thank you - I wish DIME referenced their blog and the crosshairs file in the box. Now I will go back and fix the first 3. And I have subscribed to this channel and will go join the Facebook group. Thank you again!

I stitch out the crosshair in all my designs when I am doing anything that needs to be centered such as towels or even corners of napkins. For those corners, I use a corner crosshair and then I can place the napkin directly onto the stabilizer. There is no need to put the rulers on the snap hoop.

@sewalongwithjan 6 ай бұрын

Hi Carole! I didn't put my rulers on for a long time, but finally put them on a couple of years ago. I found it very helpful when I was quilting to keep my quilt straight in the hoop. I mostly use my magnetic hoops for quilting. If you don't want them on, leave them off. Do what works for you.

so I have a Janome and the 8x12 snap hoop monster. My machine does not have that size hoop in it. So when ever I use the monster hoop I don't have the full embroidery area. So ill my cross hairs come out correctly?

@sewalongwithjan Жыл бұрын

I would guess no since it sounds like your machine doesn't actually accommodate the full size of the hoop. What is your actual largest hoop size?
