Hooping lunch bags

[twinsmom2]

Having trouble hooping foil insulated lunch bags. Unfortunately I only have standard round hoops and the piece keeps jumping out of the hoop. Any backing trick or something? Thanks for any suggestions.

As with most difficult items, a fast frame allows you to secure them outside of using a standard hoop.

As mentioned before, the Fast Frames using clamps will work as well as the clamping system. You might try placing a few small strips of rubber shelf liner between the two parts of the hoop to try and hold the fabric from slipping or try wrapping the hoop with athletic tape--anything that will create a "gripping" of the fabric then tighten good and snug.

Rubber shelf liner sounds great - no adhesive r3esidue!! I will try it. Thanks!
