Stretchy stuff is my personal enemy. I loathe it. I iron on a layer of cut
away first. This gets the fabric flat and non stretchy. Then I hoop it with a
layer of cutaway, 3 ounce. I then pin all of it together once it is hooped.
This helps to hold the stretchy to the cutaway backing. I have also been known
to run a basting stitch around it all before I get started, which I actually
prefer...much faster. Just set it up in your design to do a walking stitch
around the inside of the hoop. Be certain to use nothing larger than a #11
ball point needle. Check your bobbin tension. And don't forget to tell Amaya
you think she does great work.....!!
