I hate to knot and tie off for every single letter, but if I skip over to the next one the thread shows through. If I'm doing something with a LOT of lettering, I usually add fusible fleece to the back - but it's hard to stitch through. I'm curious as to how others handle this.Alliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06877277586697593998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29563767.post-55354547965986157392010-02-22T17:54:56.545-08:002010-02-22T17:54:56.545-08:00Thank your for sharing.

I am also going to look around for a hoop like yours. Mine are so old, but they get the job done. Seems like I am always pulling on my fabric though. Thanks for the tutorial.
