For years we have known that a square hoop would be more ideal for holding fabric than a round one. Because the weave in fabric is square, it lends itself naturally to square-hoop quilting and makes it much easier to achieve good, even tension on all sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr clear=\"all\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0766\/0136\/0605\/files\/3_82e2532f-0e51-41f2-bf35-81082239acf3.jpg?v=1762149576\" alt=\"\"\u003eAdjustable Outer Hoop\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow engineering and high-tech wood joinery have enabled The Grace Company to make the GraceHoop Squared a reality.

Straight edges make positioning and repositioning fabric simpler, and it is much easier to keep track of your work areas. The hoop's amazing design will not pull your fabric on the diagonal; it naturally tensions the quilt across the woven grain of the fabric, from side to side, not from corner to corner. The outer hoop rests on the lip of the inner hoop to prevent the outer hoop falling completely over the inner hoop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr clear=\"all\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0766\/0136\/0605\/files\/5_7c56f3be-72ae-427f-af95-1ec878fa495b.jpg?v=1762149618\" alt=\"\"\u003eIdeal Height\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe arm can be locked into eight different heights, giving you a range of approximately 29\"-44\".
