Easy Street Crafts "Square Embroidery Hoop-Frame, 5 by 5-Inch, Red

I was looking for an embroidery hoop but not this. I returned it. Still looking for an embroidery hoop that does not require "pinching" or "screwing" it tight.

Doesn't work at all. A total waste of money!

Fast delivery given it had to go US to UK, and totally worth the wait. It's a nice bright red, with a wood grain texture on the front for when used as a frame, but it makes for a great 'square hoop' for working in too! fabric is held very taut and the frame is comfortable to hold for longer stitching sessions.The only thing is, because of how it fits together to hold the fabric, it can take a bit effort to snap the pieces back together with the fabric in, or take the pieces apart again to take the fabric out but that's the same for taking the snaps of a Q-Snap so hardly much of a downside.Overall, great for those projects too small for a Q-Snap type frame and too large or oddly shaped for a hoop! It might just become my favourite working frame all round, even
