"Can I rate this hoop worse than poor? It's a glorified embroidery hoop. And while I'm sure it works fine as an embroidery hoop with one or two layers of fabric, it doesn't work for a quilt with backing, batting, top with appliqued pieces. I tried for 20min to insert the quilt fabric in the hoop. I came to the conclusion that even with 3pairs of hands, I would never be able to tighten the hoop without it popping open due to the thickness of the quilt. It not only is not as thick as a quilting hoop (1"), it's even thinner than a standard embroidery hoop by about 1/8". The groove that is supposed to make this non-slip is not large enough for the quilt thickness. Did anyone there test this hoop with an actual quilt????"

Sturdy
"This non-slip sewing hoop is very sturdy. I have never been very good with hand sewing, but home that this hoop will help. The wood seems to stay together well and the tightening and loosening screw and to hold together well. Can't wait to try to make a blanket or something."
