This is a short hand embroidery technique class to help you bind your embroidery hoop.

Binding your hoop will make it easier for you to keep your embroidery fabric in place and reduce having to tighten the fabric constantly. There are a couple of other reasons why you might want to bind your hoop and I will cover this in class.

In this class I will talk you through the materials you'll need and also show you how to use fabric remnants you might already at home to bind your hoop.

I will also cover some points you need to consider before you start binding your hoop and then demonstrate the actual binding of the hoop.

Throughout the class, I will give you tips that will help you to get the best result.

If you have any questions please post them in the discussion thread below the class video.

This class is the first in a series of short technique classes. If you have ever wondered how to tackle a certain embroidery technique or tool do let me know in the discussion thread and I will aim to create a short class or incorporate into one of my future embroidery classes.
