Today I share with you the supplies, hoops, and several tips & tricks (and maybe a few failures!) for hooping Carhartt and other thick jackets on Brother PR style machines. A list of what I use is included below.
If you are new here, I am Ashley and I operate TWO Etsy embroidery shops full time from my home studio. Over 3 years ago, I traded in my RN job and stethoscope to stay home and operate my businesses full time when I could no longer keep up with both! Now I have a beautiful little girl at home with me that keeps me busy alongside my shops.
