The listing, Oval Hoop Embroidery or Quilting has ended.
This picture is generic to save me having to make so many scans. This one is really an oval 8" x 15". It is a perfect size for embroidering a bunch of flowers on the end of a pillowcase. For your Hope Chest, of course. Or you could embroider those things to go over the arms of chairs to keep them from getting dirty or worn out. Did they ever think how worn out the women got doing all that work? It would also be good for smaller quilting projects.
