I tend to think you have a couple problems based on what you have said. First- Who digitized the design and did they know it was going on a hat? You CAN NOT take your polo shirt designs and slap them on a hat without changing a few things. Second- Is this your first attempt at hats or have done this before? There's a little bit of a learning curve to get over. Buy some cheap hats and practice away both with hooping and with the design sewout. Finally your hats must sew in a particular order. From the center out to left; from the center out to right; from ceter to top and from center to bottom. No left to rights or top to bottoms! Don't buy anything until you have a design that was produced for stitching on hats and you have some confidence in your hooping abilities. Having said that, I have several of the CCF for my AMAYAs and wouldn't trade them for anything. If you have already ordered them, you will be happy with them and you would have ordered them anyways eventually. Good luck. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
