What size hoop are you using Terri?

If it is the larger jacketback, you can wrap one of the hoops with sports 
tape, ribbon, etc. to help hold the fabric.  I actually slip in a couple 
short strips of the rubber shelf liner on the long sides of the hoop making 
sure they are not so long as to get in the way of my embroidery area.
