Be one of the first to enjoy Clare Rowley's latest invention!
With this (patent pending) product everyone can embroider anything with any sewing machine! Not intended for embroidery machines that do not sew and not designed to mount onto an embroidery unit. If you have an embroidery machine that also sews, you can use these hoops as long as the embroidery function is disabled or not attached..
I don’t have an embroidery machine can I use the Octi-Hoops?
Yes. Even if all you own is a Treadle sewing machine.With these hoops, you will not have to stretch your fabrics between 2 rings. You don't need to learn software, because there is no software required. You can take an image from a coloring book, clipart or a photo and embroider it on anything from baby socks to dog collars.
If you've done Free-Form/-Free-Motion Embroidery before, you know that your hands become sore, not with the Octi-Hoops! Your hands won't hurt, your eyes won't burn and you'll feel as though you've taken a vacation, because it releases endorphins that will make you want to stay at your machine for days..
This package comes with 3 different hoop frames that are engineered for adhesive stabilizer. You stick the stabilizer onto the back of the specially designed backside and then simply lay your fabric down and embroider.
One of the features of these hoops, is that you use specially desined handles to steer the hoop. These handles force you to hold your hands in a relaxed ergonomically correct position so you sit straight (eliminating back aches) and your hands are forced to be in the best position possible so you don't have risk of injury to your hands or wrists.
Clare Rowley, Inventor and educator, will guide you through the learning process and open a world of creativity that you can't even imagine. Clare will teach you the basics of machine embroidery; how to stabilize difficult fabrics, how to use these amazing hoops for mending garments that you probably were unable to repair before. If you have a shirt that is stained, and it fits you perfectly, but you are embarrassed to wear it in public - she will show you how to salvage it and love it even more!
Can't afford one of the embroidery machines? This will allow you to keep the machine you have now and embroider faster, with less preparation than with any computerized embroidery machine. Why? Because you are the one that moves the hoop! You actually color or paint with your thread - if you can color in a coloring book then you can embroider.
Octi-Hoops are scheduled to release to the International public on January 20th of 2009. We are offering a special discounted price for anyone interested in being among the first to use these amazing, easy to use hoops. Click to Learn More
