I have been visiting and reading this site for months so this was the first place I thought of to seek advice. I have an order for 24 fleece headband/ear warmers. I purchased them through San Mar. Is there a trick to hooping these so my design always has the same amount of room above and below the design on the band that goes across the top of your head. I am using an 18cm round hoop with full backing. I was thinking I would just try my best and tweak it until I get a centered one sewn out and then make a mark on my hoop showing where I should line up the top of the band so that the rest are centered. I have an Amaya XT and DS9. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
