Sew Inspired by Bonnie's Tuesday's Tip: "Magnetic Hoops for Embroidery--Yes or No?" 

To another Bonnie, thank you for your help with my sewing passion.... Bonnie Pat

Thank you. I learned from a video out there somewhere to use the plastic that separates the hoops, place it under your project to stabilize your project while taking it to your machine ...

DIME has a tutorial that shows to lift the top portion up over the machine without removing. Them you can adjust your quilt and then just place the top hoop back on. Prevents having to completely remove the hoop

Thanks for the great video!

Thank you so very much Bonnie. I was able to use my snap hoop monster and quilt my first Grandbaby's quilt yesterday!

Thanks so much for this video

Thank s for the info about the hoops.

Awesome video thank you I have been looking to purchase a magnetic hoop but was concern about the magnetic next to my embroidery machine thank you for answering that question.

Thank you for the information.😁

Thank you, only got my machine in November so still very new! I know I have to keep my sissix magnetic platform well away from the laptop so thought it worth asking the question!!

thanks for all the info. bought one. got a good price. thanks.

Thank you, Bonnie. I love your video. The title of the video is “Magnetic Hoops for Em,broidery - Yes or No?” and it certainly answered my question and then some. There are many other videos going into greater detail on other embroidery subjects which I most certainly will seek. I particularly liked the part about handling and hooping quilts and want to return to it. So in this comment I’m giving myself a hint as to where that begins: 12:26 Hooping.

I agree with you about the measuring tape labels. Mine were all crumbled up too

I'm glad you did this review. I don't quilt, but I do Machine Embroidery. I have been curious about this. I have a Babylock Aventura. I probably don't need the size you have. Thank you for showing this.

Had to do that to mine ,also.

What type of feed are you using

Bonnie I just learned about this monster hoop I have to get one super nice ,.Listen my husband cut out a large piece of cardboard box to fit underneath the dream machine to make it easier to move closer to me when I need it.it works great .

I used magnetic hoop for towels ony Personna. works great

Bonnie, I really enjoyed your presentation and I’m going on eBay this week to buy myself a monster. In the meantime, you could put your dream machine on one or two dollar tree cutting mat. Makes it move around a lot easier.

Ooh lucky I found this before accidentally ordering the non monster version!

Check with the company you order from to be sure the largest shown here is compatible. The website said the one she is demonstrating with was compatible with my Dream machine I but it wasn’t.

It is such a powerful magnet that if the divider is not between, it is almost impossible to get them apart... learned that the HARD way.

Could you do a video with the pr100 brother machine?

That is exactly what I wanted to know. I’m getting a 6 x 10 so I can have play room

I’m looking at the snap hoop RM4 or RM5 for my Bernina 790 plus. Has anyone used these on this machine? Any issues?

I went to Babylock and asked for magnetic hoops. I was told they do not make them for their machines! I found one on a Sew It's For Sale and the lady was great and shipped it---no problem! Thanks for this tutorial!!!

Thank you for the review i've been wanting a monster hoop! I have a Babylock Ellisiomo BLSO and wanted to know if I can use the the largest hoop because I'm getting into quilting and would like the convience. I'm told my machine has a 7.9" x 11.75" sewing field. Does this matter? As you say they're expensive and I don't want to get more then I can use. Thank you for your show I just discovered you and will be back often. '

can you tell me whats the difference in the HAx1 (130/705H) 15x1 75/11 and the SAEMB7511? needles

Do they have one that fits a 6 needle Babylock.

Hello

What type of embroidery machine is this ?

how do you add this hoop to your machine selection?

ENJOYED THIS VIDEO & HAPPY TO HEAR ABOUT THE MAGNETIC AROUND THE EMBROIDERY MACHINE NOT BEING AN ISSUE I am not seeing the link for where you purchased this & am wondering about the site you found it at

Is there hoops like this for the brother innovis nv800e

I would love to see a baby quilt done on the Monster Hoop so you can see it actually being done. Thank you for your time!

Is there a magnetic hoop for the Brother PE770?

what thread are you using to do the quilt edge to edge top and bottom?

In Emily’s instructions she tells you to use two sided tape on the top hoop and stick it on the top of your quilt sandwich exactly where you want it. Then it is perfectly aligned and won’t move and from there you can more easily slide the bottom hoop to where it should go. Kind of hard lining up that bottom hoop just right by feel only. Did you try her method? Looked pretty easy in her video.

I, too, was so confused-still am on magnetic hoops. Bought 5 x 7 and then 8 x 8. I ask Dealer of Babylock for the Monster 4X's Magnetic and she said it was but nowhere on the box does it say 4 X's as in DIME pictures of the box--just says Monster but floating towels etc. It does still 'scoot around' a bit and yes, you have to hold that hoop if you have to change your bobbin or remove it before you are done embroidering. I, also, am disappointed that for the cost of those thoops it comes with 'paper' measure you stick on and hope you get it right. I did extensive online searching for this product and it comes down to the Letter and Number of the product that will fit whatever machine you're looking for. Again, one came from dealer of my machine and the other online Amazon during Prime deal or Black Friday deal.

Thanks for the quick response. Which one do u use? (needle) Cus your machine is a babyock? I have the brother dream creator 5100. Only difference I believe is mine doesn't have the scanner, but they gave me a mini scanner to use. Oh thanks for the video. Got to get one of those snap hoops

Hi dose this hoop work on inovis. V3

I have one of these with with about one dozen magnets.I have used it once.I did not have the patient for it,it is on the top of my wardrobe.If any one wants it, your are welcome to it,for the cost of the postage. Brother machine.

HOW DO YOU EVENLY APPLY THE MEASURING TAPES THAT IT CAME WITH?

Do the magnetic hoops fit any make of machine?

Bonnie, I so agree about the tape not being already attached! It was not the easiest thing to get perfect and I wrote to them that at the least they should have a mark for the center of each side.

Links in distription are broken

Tried to follow links. Warning messages. Why?

Kitts Stitchery, I am so glad you did this about the magnetic Hoops. This really helped.

Hi Bonnie, can you use the magnetic hoop for applique. Any tips?

We know that magnets can wipe computers memories. With that in mind, is it a good idea to use these on our beautiful machines? Aside from that concern, they appear to be a great way of hooping easily & I could be tempted. I'd welcome your thoughts...

The board between the hoops is probably to keep the hoops from warping when not in use.

Will the magnetic hoops damage the machines ??? TIA XX

It seems difficult, and very fussy. I've been thinking about doing this, but it looks like too much trouble

If you are pinning all your (sandwich) layers together the fabric before you put in a hoop, I wouldn’t think it would be a problem with the fabric moving.

Sound issues

Can you say where you bought your hoop again, please and the approximate cost .

I was disappointed as well that the rulers were not already attached. The Dime hoop is too expensive for that!

سلام عليكم أرجو ترجمت الفيديو بالعربية لو سمحتم

Amelie Scott Designs is the name of her company. The founder is Christine Connor and along with her husband, they have perfected the art of quilting with an embroidery program on a layered quilt. I have design book 1, 3 & 6, plus her Military Designs. I have done 10 of her designs on quilts I have made and have had successful results. Although, I do not have a Snap Monster Magnetic Hoop for my Bernina just yet, I do use my Mega hoop and it works quiet well. I have enjoyed Christines designs and how nicely they stick out.

Bonnie, I have that quilting book of designs. I'd never used anything like it so I followed her instructions very carefully and you know what? I did it! I quilted my granddaughter's quilt. It was beautiful! So worth trying and gives a very professional finish. That quilt also happened to be my first. It took a while to find someone to ship it to me in the UK and cost me, but well worth it.

Love it... What Material did you use for your Baby Boy quilt.. I love the backing.

Love your video! Just bought the amelie Scott book also. Did you use the same thread on the top and bobbin for your quilt and if so what type of thread did you use? Please continue your a great teacher.

Can you give the link for the stabilizer you used for your template, please?

Is there a magnetic hoop for baby lock essnta?

Bonnie, I know you have a brother, but is it innovis?

like love

Just wanted to give you some feedback. The whole point of me watching a RU-vid video is to actually see how something is done, and not to pretend and imagine what you did off camera before. This video wasn't helping me at all.
