Show and Tell - Hoopla

By Leonied
Hi Everyone!

Time is zippytydoodaing by and I cant believe we're back at Thursday already!
Leading up to Christmas I got my hoop on and created these little guys.  All inspired by various Pinterest Pins.
These two were for Miriam as part of the Advent Swap.

Idea from this website.


And then this one for Cat for Christmas.  It has batting on the back and is hand-quilted in alternate blocks to give it definition, depth and texture.

Photo from Cat.  Inspired by this Pin (for which I cant find a website...)


I struggled with the backs and tried different things for them all.  I finally felt comfortable with this method for finishing hoop backs.
Have you attempted Hoop Art?  Any tips or tricks to share?  Would love to hear your thoughts!
February's giveaway prize is this Paper pack.  Everyone who links up during the month is in to win!

Thanks for stopping by and I'm looking forward to seeing what goodness you've been creating!
