HoopSisters.com announces “Going Crazy”

A new design, Going Crazy, is now available from HoopSisters. This unique quilting technique makes the embroidery machine a necessity for precision piecing and quilting.

The Embroidablock™ collection has just gotten larger! Introducing Going Crazy; a pieced in the hoop/quilt as you go design. HoopSisters™ Going Crazy is not only pieced, but also decoratively stitched and quilted while in the hoop. The back is as beautiful as the front. The designs come in two block sizes and are multi-formatted for all machine brands.

HoopSisters now has a total of 16 designs and complimentary products available for classes or to stock in your store. A 10 month Embroidablock™ of the Month Quilt program is also available. Embroidablock™ classes will enable quilters to produce perfect quilt blocks in the hoop of an embroidery machine and introduce embroiderers to quilting. The technique is unique, combining embroidery with piecing, quilting and decorative stitching.

It is so easy to learn, even people, young or old who have never sewn before are easily hooked. Hoopsisters Battilizer™, the perfect combination of batting and stabilizer, and Trimmers by George are ideal tools that will also pair nicely with this technique allowing for perfect quilts each time.

Co-Founder, Annie Moody said, “Our customers are finding the Embroidablock™ technique the perfect way to close that embroidery machine sale. The technique gives a whole new use for an embroidery machine. It is great to embroider, but how many dish towels can you do? Now, this new quilting technique is becoming the craze and accepted way of quilting, with your embroidery machine.”
