A firm favourite

I get asked all the time 'what's your favourite hoop you've made'
and it's a really hard question to answer, as cliche as i sounds i love every hoop that i make, but i often find that the latest hoop i'm making i say to myself 'this is my favourite hoop' but as soon as i start on the next one i say the exact same thing.

I got an email from a customer called Charlotte, asking for a custom hoop with the Kurt Cobain quote
'wanting to be someone else is a waste of who you are'
I knew right away that this quote was awesome and would look so good embroidered onto a hoop.

I must admit, i wasn't even aware of this quote existing until now (am i terrible?) but it really was my kinda quote and one i thought a lot of people could relate to.
 I mean who doesn't spend their time wishing they were someone else, i mean i know i do, when I'm not wishing i'm Beyonce i'm wishing i'm Iggy Azalea or maybe just someone who's a little bit famous, or has lots of money or has a really nice bum... anyway, i'm getting way too side tracked here.
It was a god damn good quote, know what i mean?!
And here is the finished product.
I like to keep thinks edging on the girly, cutesy side of things and i think the vintage floral embroidery is totally adorbs.


Here is a photo of the hoop hanging in it's new crib with it's new buddies.
I LOVE seeing my hoops in their new homes, so if you're the owner of one of my hoops and haven't done so already upload a photo to Instagram and tag me @thimbleandbobbin or you could email a photo to me thimbleandbobbin@hotmail.co.uk

Custom Hoops


I get lots of people asking me if i make custom hoops, and the answer is, HECK YES I DO!

Prices depend on what wording you would like embroidering.
I don't like to squish too much into a small hoop as that makes the wording really small and then you can't actually read it unless you're really close up.

But please feel free to shoot me an email to thimbleandbobbin@hotmail.co.uk with your requests and i'd be happy to discuss prices etc.

At the moment custom orders have a 2 week wait.



pssssstttt! custom hoop prices are going to rise ever so slightly in February so get your requests in now ;)
