canvas seat backs

[HH5131]

How do you all hoop up a canvas seat back and what hoop do you use? I've been using peel n stick backing with the 17x11 hoop and I cannot get it to sew out straight. It tends to run uphill even when I mark it prior to sewing and then tracing it out etc.
Any suggestions? thx!

Dear HH5131 (No Name),
With a hoop of that size, are you making sure that the design is digitized so that it sews from the center out to one side and then returns to the center and sews out in the other direction?
With a large hoop, if you start sewing from one side to another, the fabric will have a tendency to move on you. Sometimes this can be handled more appropriately with spray adhesive or even well placed underlay stitches in the design.
