- I'll show you step-by-step how to use the new string art hoop finishing method for cross stitch or embroidery that everyone's excited about.
jccwaddell taught me this method. Go give her a follow!
You're going to need a long, sharp needle for this, and more or less a full skein of embroidery floss. (I haven't tried it, but I'll bet this would also be a good use for that ball of perle cotton you bought on accident!)

![Decorate Your Embroidery Hoop Tutorial | How to Fabric Wrap Your Hoop [No Fraying]](/img/n.gif)
I used your video to finish all my projects on their hoops now, I linked it to all my post on Reddit where people asked me how I did the back ! Thank you it was very well explained and entertaining !
Love this finishing method! I will cover the backside stitching with a circle of card stock prior to completing the string art lacing. I think it will make a cleaner, more professional look on the back. Thanks for a great tutorial!
I'm just beginning and I love this technique...I'm gonna try it when I finish my first one!
So I just found you recently while looking for something to listen to while I work on projects. (I started in crochet but now I do everything from sewing clothes and plushies (once I finish my first project) to embroidery, needle point/cross stitch and I even want to try needlefelting. I love fiber art in general and I'm hoping to gather up the various crafts and bring them together in my plushy designs to make them very unique but also durable so they can be played with (atleast by respectful persons, not kids that just throw their toys in the dirt, toys that are special and treasured).
I absolutely LOVE your handle and Nugget is just so precious, Parakeet's hold a special place in my heart! I had a pair when I was a kid that would sit on my glasses on either side, balancing it out and would preen my eyebrows. Ugh, that's my childhood right there. Just barely a video in and I already adore your content! Can't wait to see more!!
had a little heart attack when you took out the outer ring of the hoop! amazing, saving this for later, thanks!
Same, TBH.
I came for the cross stitch... I am staying for Nugget! 😹 I have a couple of cats myself, and one of them has a habit of biting through my thread... I actually have a kit for when I’m at my gran's and I discovered this morning that he’d done some sneaky thread biting! I’ve actually promised my gran a cross stitch, and I am so using this to finish the back, it’s gorgeous. =^.^= I’m looking forward to trying it, now!
Calm and direct, love it. 🇨🇦
This is so helpful!! I've been doing a "version" of this on the back of my finished hoops but they looked a hot mess. This is functional AND pretty. Thanks!
Nugget is just too cute. I love the name of your channel. It is so unique. This is my first time visiting. (Linda)
Thank you for this great tutorial, it's exactly what I needed!
Thank you, just in time i have 4 little hoops to finish that have been sitting here while I think about how to finish them..... thanks again. Have a good day and stay safe.💜
Thank you for this very well explained tutorial! I'm doing a gift for a friend and can't wait to try this for the finish.
2 seconds in and I've already subscribed. Great stuff!
SAAAAAME!!!! 🥰😍🤩
This is a fun, beautiful way to secure and round hooped pieces. Thanks
I have been watching all your videos and I have learned so much! New subscriber here! 😊
So for a beginner, like me, it might be a good idea to take a chalk pencil and draw a line around the aida slightly larger than the hoop and maybe mark off every 2, 3 or 4 holes, so we can keep our stitching even. At least that makes sense to me.
I would suggest marking one of the hoop rings rather than the fabric. If you marked the back of the fabric, your markings would be impossible to see after the first three stitches. If you marked the outside of the fabric, you'd have a hard time cleaning them off after you're done.
ASMR until you hit a knot! then we all curse in unison.
lol, yup. That cheap floss is much more prone to tangles than DMC.
Question. What if you had extra thick foam core or round wood? Trace the inner ring to exact size and use that as the inner ring when “stitching”. Instead of leaving the hoop in there? Then there’s a solid color underneath the beautiful finished back? I’m new to alllllll of this. Really enjoy your video. I’m also sure you’ve thought of all this. No hate only love!
Edited for wording and spelling
I'm developing some things for this. I recently bought some equipment to see if there's a feasible product solution.
@@SonovaStitch awesome! Good for you! ❤️ from Canada! Edited for spelling! Oh my goodness fat fingers!
Thnx so much for sharing it!!!!
could you do this in an oval hoop? I'm assuming it's the same process but different math
Just finished off 5 pieces thanks to this video! For larger hoops (like 10") can you do more points of contact?
Yes, you can! Just measure regular intervals around the hoop for your initial points. The more points you add, though, the closer to the edge of the hoop your string art is going to be (picture a square inscribed inside a circle vs a triangle vs an octagon, for instance)
Thank you so much for this new method of finishing a cross stitch in a hoop. Just a quick question, the edge of the aida looks like it is fraying a little bit, how can you stop that please.
There are a couple things you could do. One would be to run a zigzag stitch (or serge) around the edges after you trim it down. The other would be to hit all those cut edges with Fray Check between trimming and starting lacing.
What do/will you do with the outer hoops if you do remove them?
I just let them collect until my girlfriend gets mad and throws them away!
But I'm working on a solution for this. Not the mad girlfriend, the hoops.
Do you recommend using fray check or anything on the edges before adding the floss? I worry the open edges might fray?
Once the stitches are in place the stitching protects the raw edges of the fabric from fraying. Fray Check wouldn't hurt but I've never bothered using it!
I can't see how you did a pin stitch. I got a bit confused. Do you have a vid illustrating this ending with a pin stitch?
It's only a pin stitch insofar as I'm relying on the tension of the stitch itself to hold itself in place. You could use any knot
do you think you could do this on a oval hoop? I am working on a really large piece that I did in a 17" quilting hoop that I thought was a circle until i went and measured it.
Yes, you could. Depending on how much of a perfectionist you are, it could get complicated, though. At the narrower end of the oval, you're farther from the center of the triangle you're ascribing into the ring, so the geometry gets complicated. If you want your stitches to have even spacing, they'll need to be at regular intervals around the perimeter measured by degrees rotation, rather than measured by distance at the perimeter, if that makes sense.
I'm sure there's a reason but the logo is distracting to a fault 🫤
