I never realized I was hooping wrong until I saw your video. I had to giggle about the spray adhesive because I describe things the same way with sound effects. Thank you so much!
Hi Lindee have you got a video on how to handle a large hoop My brother hoop is 12inches x 7inches and I find it really hard to get the fabric to smooth out while trying to put inner hoop in. I feel like I'm all fingers and thumbs.
I have stretched cutaway stabilizer on a 5x7 hoop and get that lovely drum sound. Then, I floated the polyester T-shirt and pinned it for extra stability (after spraying with temp adhesive). The material was not pulled or stretched at all, but the stabilizer was stretched tight. IS that why my stitches pulled together making wrinkles on the material?
The stabilizer should be "drum tight" and the fabric neutral. You may still get wrinkles if the stabilizer is not firmly gripped by the hoop, the thread tensions are too tight, or the design is too dense.

Great advice! I just embroidered a pique knit polo with no puckers! I've been embroidering for 15 years and have been doing it wrong all this time.
I love your videos, so informative. Definitely subscribed! Thank you!
Very clear, informative and helpful. Thank you!
This was excellent as was Part 1 & 2 on preventing puckers. Thanks so much!!!
