Abstract
A texture hoop for use in a sewing machine which aids the application of ribbons, yarns and other embellishments within a design. The texture hoop has a fixture with a central opening. A base fabric to receive embellishments is stretched across the central opening and affixed to the fixture edges. Embellishments are positioned upon the base fabric to achieve a pleasing design. The embellishments are then readily secured in the texture hoop fixture at the desired locations and laying upon the base fabric. A stitch pattern is then applied to sew the embellishments to the base fabric by manipulating the fixture with base fabric and secured embellishments beneath the sewing machine presser foot. The texture hoop may also be used in conjunction with automated stitch patterns and embroidery elements available in processor controlled machines.
