Very interesting. What is the purpose of this and how is it used.
It reminds me of my years of doing embroidery and I would put a piece of muslin over the worked area to keep it clean on the edges of the hoop while I held it. Not the same thing, just a memory.
Curious?
peace

This looks like it would work better than the half hoop I purchased several years ago. Daffy Daphne would you please post a tutorial on how you did this. I absolutely love it and Don it looks great & like many others I could not think of what a hoop skirt was, I was a teenager in the fifties when girls wore hoops.
