The Embroidery Hoop shopping list

embroidery hoop shopping list

One question I get asked regularly is this:

Where can I shop hoop x or hoop y? There seems to be no one selling them!

I buy my tools and materials over here in Online Shops from Germany and never had a problem not finding anything I needed. Back when I had the DMC hoops in my Etsy Shop I was very surprised to send them all over the world. I always thought at least the wooden hoops would be all over the place.

The truth is, quality hoops are not omnipresent in every country or part of a country. Living in a rural setting now myself, it is a major preplanned operation to go shopping in the “big town” (ok that big town is either our former home town or Berlin, which arguably is THE big town here in Germany and I can get almost everything there). I also know that many of you live in a part of the country that takes an even longer drive than the 1 hour we need to go to Berlin.

Consequently online shopping has become a blessing for us. The shops I want to introduce you to are all Online Shops and many sell internationally. So regardless of the country you live in, I’m sure you will find something. The list below is sorted by country. I have tried to include not as many as possible but shops with a large variety of hoops so you don’t need to order from many different shops to get a decent collection.
