HOOP MASTER
Embroiderers use this hooping board to attain a uniform
placement of the hoop and garment to maintain consistency
when hooping multiple items. The board holds the outer ring
of the hoop. Then, you would place the garment over the
board and top it off with the outer hoop ring. The HoopMaster
is known to be the easiest to use embroidery hooping aid on
the market. Its many patented features make hooping simple,
quick and more consistent. Plus, it’s custom-made for your
hoops, so there is no hardware to adjust.

MAGNETIC HOOPS
Specialty hoops
8-IN-1 DEVICE
Magnetic hoops are a great solution for hooping very thick
material such as bags. These hoops provide much stronger
support to your garment and ensure the fabric is held
securely within the hoop. Great for thin materials that are
prone to hoop burns (such as satin), these hoops are known
to reduce hoop burns, the marks your hoops leave behind on
your fabric.
A solution for difficult-to-hoop items, the 8-in-1 device
consists of eight frames that are compatible with one
master bracket. These frames are designed to be hooped
with adhesive stabilizer, which allows you to embroider your
material directly over a thin frame. These narrow frames
allow you to get into hard-to-reach areas such as pockets,
shirt sleeves and more.
