Free-Motion Embroidery
Sewing Machine Hoop

It's taken me some time, but I have found a new high quality Embroidery Hoop that is specifically made for Machine Embroidery... and a hoop for doing Free-Motion Machine Embroidery on your Featherweight 221 or 222 or any Sewing Machine for that matter!

You may ask which size is best?  Well, I find that the 4-inch and 6-inch work best for the Featherweight machine, but I have been able to work the 8-inch as well, it just takes some maneuvering when working around the motor area at the back of the machine with the 8-inch.  I would recommend the larger sizes for larger head machines such as the Singer 401 (401A), 500 (500A), 503, etc...  Low shank and slant shank embroidery attachments are also available.

What makes a Machine Embroidery Hoop different from a Hand Embroidery Hoop?

Good question - well, first of all, its thickness. It is narrow for easy maneuverability under the embroidery foot / shank. A regular hand embroidery hoop, whether metal, plastic or wood, generally has a wider rim, making it difficult to get underneath the foot. Also, a regular hand embroidery hoop is not designed for constant motion simultaneous with the needle all the while holding the fabric consistently taut - which is of utmost importance. Therefore, this particular machine embroidery hoop is made of very sturdy high-quality wood. It will withstand constant motion and adjustment for your fabric thickness. I used one with a completed quilt (all layers) so I could machine embroider names of those who attended a baby shower.


Now you can embroider on your sewing machine Just like they did in the "olden days"!

Whether you use a vintage original embroidery attachment, a new reproduction embroidery attachment for low shank, slant shank, or even go without and use only your needle, a Machine Embroidery Hoop is a must-have.
