    I wish I could afford these hoops. I am starting my Christmas list now. I have always wanted to do some of the embroidery but would not do enough to warrant a machine. Thanks for the link

    She keeps saying "embroidering", not quilting. There is no way I could quilt in an area that small and keep needing to re-hoop...there would be no continuity to the quilting. Using a hopping foot totally eliminates the drag created by the regular feet, but protects your fingers more, so what is the difference??

    Clair Rowley is the inventer of "Creative Feet". You can go to www.creativefeet.com to find her website. I purchased some of her products years ago...long before I had an embroidery machine and long before I had a machine with all the fancy stitches. I purchased the "Pearls and Piping",Sequins and Ribbon", and "Satin Edge" feet along with the manual. They work great!!! I have been looking at these "Octagon" hoops as well and trying to make a decision as to whether or not I would use them enough to be worth it for me. Having used her other products, I would imagine these octagon hoops would work well also. Let us know what you decide .

    looks interesting. One of my machines is a super high shank and I can't find a darning foot that will fit. I have some fabric grip hoops that are similar to these and I'm going to try this.

    Very interesting, but $90 for the set -- wow!!

    Hate to say it -- I was a bit distracted by the machine -- has anyone else put a skin on their sewing machine?? I thought that could be fun.
