Pretty much that is what I was doing except I didnt think about lining the hoop up with a straight edge, must be my blonde thing... Oh, just a little note I sewed my first one out and it looks awesome however getting my hoop out from the inside well lets just say I need glue! Yes, it broke on me and now have to wait for the hubby to come back with a clamp and glue so I can fix it so I can finish these jackets in time... =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
