18" Hoop is custom made by Barnett's Laptop Hoops for hand quilting. We steam bend these quilt hoops one at a time. It will take a few days to make, allowing the wood to dry completely before we glue the blocks and sand it to perfection. This is a high quality hoop - not your local craft store import hoop. You will love working with this on your hand quilting projects.

I only have Barnett hoops now. Once you try one, you won't want those cheap, flimsy hobby store hoops. I got a few sizes, and this one is perfect for a big project, since I don't have to change it very often. Highly recommended!

I ordered the 18" hoop for hand quilting. The moment I held it in my hand, and felt the smooth solid wood, I knew it was worth the wait. It's easy to put on and doesn't slip off. No more craft store hoops for me!

Barnett's 18" hoop is perfect for my hand quilting needs. It's a great size and keeps the fabric perfectly taut while I work. It looks beautiful and feels lovely to the hand. Thanks for the care and workmanship you put into it.

I make hand-made quilts and do not have the space for a quilting frame. I use an 18" hoop - and have gone through a few that have split and broken. When I found the website for Barnett's I was impressed by the positive reviews, so I ordered an 18" hoop (which is what I have always used). When I opened the package and held it, I knew I had found the perfect hoop. I have only used it for a few weeks, but believe it will be the last one I ever have to purchase. It is beautifully crafted, sturdy and comfortable to use. Thanks!

Dear Harry,
I have just received my new hoop and I am thrilled with the quality and workmanship. I am happy to have a sturdy hoop to quilt with after all these years of working with the flimsy one I used to use.
Thanks again,
Laura
