Hoop and Fabric Craft

I made two of these for Valentines Day with happy Penguins marching with hearts on their flippers and the other with dogs and hearts.

For St. Patrick's day I made two with frog's dressed as Leprechauns and a pots of gold.

I took glitter paint and embellished the pictures. I hung them in my office during the corresponding holidays and people loved them!

Materials Needed:

• Fabric with design of choice
• Wooden Embroidery Hoop (s)
• Glue, I like Aleenes Tacky glue but Elmers is good too.
• Matching Ribbon
• Scissors

Cut your fabric about two inches larger that the embroidery hoop. Put your design in middle of the hoop.

Take the inner hoop and put a small amount of glue over the outer part of the hoop.

Take the fabric and line it up over the smaller inner hoop.

Take the larger outer hoop and secure it over the fabric and inner hoop. Keep the screw part at the top; this will be your hanging part.

Tighten the screw part making sure that your fabric remains tight.

Let the glue dry for an hour or so and trim off excess material in the back.

Tie a ribbon on the screw part.

Fabric can be so beautiful. It can be used any time any way. Use your imagination!

Happy Crafting!
