It's a 'stole', just like a 'mink stole'...
use one of the wooden hoops wide enough for your 12" embroidery, and hoop it 
with a large enough piece of cutaway (3 oz.) to go all 4 sides. 
Sew your design right on this...and then carefully cut it out with 1/2" or so 
spacing to make an 'opening' in your backing. Use a marker and mark your 
'center' on the hoop AND the backing material, so you can unhoop it and rehoop 
in the same spot.
Now you can use adhesive spray to hold down a piece of tearaway just large 
enough to cover that hole, and rehoop with your stole in place, if the hoop 
leaves a 'hoop burn mark' on the satin, leave the backing hooped, and spray on 
the BACKING just a light coating of adhesive to hold the satin in place. 
Instead of hooping the stole, just press it into place using your lineup marks 
with a piece of tearaway across the hole. Now you can sew the design, lift off 
the stole and the tearaway, and go right to the next one with another piece of 
tearaway.
