Stitching Tools

Wrap your hoop!

Fine Cotton Twill Tape is used to protect your embroidery fabric or linen from marking. To use, just wrap the hoop with the twill tape and use a stitch to fasten it. For delicate and fancy fabrics like silk or satin, wrap both the inner and outer hoop for maximum protection and marking prevention.

Twill Tape is available in 3 sizes : 3/8" wide, 1/2" wide, and 3/4" wide:

• 3/4" width tape is used for a 7/8" hoop - 3 yards in length. 
• 1/2" width tape is used for 5/8" hoop - 4 yards in length.
• 3/8" width tape is used for a 5/16" hoop - 4 yards in length.

1 package will cover an 8" hoop.
