Do you have an embroidery machine with a 4x4 hoop? If so, I just have one thing to say...
HOORAY! 🎉
Sure, there are machines with bigger hoops on the market. But don't feel limited by a 4x4 hoop because there are so many things you can do!
You might even say the smaller, the cuter. 😊 Here are a few ideas to help you get started!
There are several darling projects in the Digital Downloads section of Kimberbell.com. Shown below is the Sweet Peek Zipper Pouch, made completely in a 4x4 hoop!
Fun, huh? Here are some other Digital Downloads you can make in a 4x4 hoop!
Remember to check the required hoop sizes before buying any embroidery design online. 😊
We also have several Pennants & Banners to choose from. Each pennant comes in five graduating sizes, and the smallest size can easily be made in a 4x4 hoop.
Here are some Pennants & Banners collections you can purchase and download from the Kimberbell Vault!
Psssst! We're adding more designs to the Kimberbell Vault all of the time, so remember to check often!
It's a Cinch Gift Bags also come in a variety of sizes, including a small size for a 4x4 hoop. This little bag is super sweet for birthday parties and more!
Here are some of our other It's a Cinch collections in the Kimberbell Vault:
Our Machine Embroider by Number series also have designs for a 4x4 hoop. We turned the smallest size into a darling pincushion! Now, if that's not a project worth doing, I don't know what is. 😍
Here are the links to our other Machine Embroider by Number designs!
Felt Cozies are another quick and easy gift you can make in a 4x4 hoop. In fact, I made these exact XO cozies last February for my son's fifth-grade Valentine party. (I made 36 of them, and they were a hit!)
Here are some of our other Felt Cozies for you to enjoy. (They're so quick and easy!)
This is just the tip of the iceberg, friends. We have many other projects for a 4x4 hoop, including this adorable Heart-Felt Fox. (These stitch out so quickly and can be used for so many things...)
As I mentioned in my post about Fusible Peel & Stick, I made the owl design for my son's third-grade teacher who loved owls. Projects made in 4x4 hoops are just so very giftable. Here are some others:
*Heart-Felt Friends, including the fox design shown above, will be available in the Kimberbell Vault this December!
So, have you gotten the idea that there's a lot you can do with a 4x4 hoop? And I'm not even finished! Here are some other ideas from collections you can find wherever Kimberbell products are sold.
With some of these collections, you won't be able to make every design with a 4x4 hoop. But you will be able to make the smallest sizes. Remember, check the packaging to see what hoop sizes are required!
Honestly, friends, now that I think about it...most of the machine embroidery I do is with a 4x4 hoop because those projects are easy gifts that don't take long to whip out. And that's where I am in life right now!
Be sure to watch for upcoming Kimberbell products in the year ahead, because we have PLANS that you and your 4x4 hoop can look forward to. 😊
We can't wait to Experience the Joy of Creativity® with you!
