May Project – In the Hoop
Time flies, doesn’t it? Here we are in May already, wondering where the first part of the year has vanished. But with a new month comes a fresh and exhilarating challenge from our Creative Collective, and we’re thrilled to introduce it to all our craft-loving enthusiasts!
Be Inspired: The Embroidery Hoop Challenge
Have you noticed the resurgence of the classic embroidery hoop in crafting circles? This simple, yet remarkably versatile tool has captured the imaginations of crafters worldwide, sparking a wave of creative projects. This month, we’re inviting you to explore the boundless possibilities of the embroidery hoop. Whether you prefer them round or oval, large or small, we challenge you to unleash your creativity and craft something spectacular using an embroidery hoop.
