Hoops of Color!



Sometimes....we just need an alternative to art work. I love beautiful pieces of art as much as the next person, but every now and then I find myself wanting something else! Today I stumbled on this craft project that I thought was a great idea. I know there's been many times where I've walked into a fabric store, and can find a fabric that I fell in love with, but don't have a clue what to do with, OR it's so expensive, that I can't buy a ton of yardage. Well....here is the perfect solution to small yardage creating high impact.


Materials that are needed:



  1. Embroidery hoops of any size

  2. Square of fabric at least 2" bigger than any embroidery hoop.

  3. Scissors

  4. Elmer's Glue

Instructions:



  1. Place fabric in hoop, pull taught.

  2. Turn to wrong side, run a line of glue on inside ring close to fabric

  3. Press fabric into glue all of the way around

  4. Allow glue to dry

  5. Cut excess fabric off
