Never quilt a square quilt on a round hoop!

Now the same amazing innovation and function found in the original GraceHoop2 is available in a new Polymer edition. This product has all of the same features of the wood version, using different material. The hoops, support brackets and ball-swivel mechanism all made from high-quality industrial strength polymer resins instead of wood.

Shape makes all the difference.
Square-hoop quilting is really a matter of logic. For years we have known that a square hoop would be more ideal for holding fabric than a round one. Because the weave in fabric is square, it lends itself naturally to square-hoop quilting, and makes it much easier to achieve good, even tension on all sides. Now high-tech engineering has enabled the Grace Company to make the GraceHoop2 PolyPro a reality. You will easily achieve the accuracy and ease of use that would be difficult, if not impossible, with a round hoop.

Stretch fabric the way it was meant to be stretched.
Quilters will love quilting on theGraceHoop2 PolyPro. Straight edges make positioning and repositioning fabric simpler, and it is much easier to keep track of your work areas. The hoops amazing design will not pull your fabric on the diagonal; it just naturally tensions the quilt across the woven grain of the fabric, from side to side, not from corner to corner. The outer hoop rests on the lip of the inner hoop to prevent the outer hoop falling completely over the inner hoop. A tighten-and-release system built into the outer hoop allows the quilter to easily tighten it down so that it fits snugly around the fabric and inner hoop without a bolt sticking out to snag on fabric or clothing. Thin, carefully placed dish brackets enable the quilter's hands to get underneath the hoop with plenty of clearance. Quilting is very comfortable, even in the corners.

Quilt in any position.
The GraceHoop2 PolyPro comes with one TotalComfort™ Quilt and Craft Stand. This unique stand is made from extremely tough Birch plywood, and includes an adjustable arm and two base pieces. When combined with the ball-swivel, the TotalComfort Quilt and Craft Stand provides the quilter with an endless possibility of quilting positions. The arm easily adjusts to four different height settings,from 24" to 45", nearly a two-foot span. It adjusts high enough for even the tallest of quilters to quilt standing. At its lowest setting, a quilter could quilt sitting on the floor or even while lying in bed. The stand's low-profile front foot base easily slides underneath a sofa, bed or recliner. Side feet provide stability and prevent wobbling, even with the heaviest of quilts. Busy quilters will especially appreciate the GraceHoop2 Lift-and-Tote Handle. Placed on the back of the arm, this handle enables the quilter to quickly lift and pivot the hoop out of the way when getting up.

360° rotation in two directions.
Quilters will be amazed with the GraceHoop PolyPro SureLock™ Swivel device. This ball swivel mechanism allows for absolute 360-degree rotation, vertically and horizontally. Never before has this kind of flexibility been incorporated in a hoop! Quilters can achieve the same angle and flexibility whether sitting in front or to either side of the hoop. A simple turn of a knob controls both rotational directions, and will lock the ball swivel securely into place at any angle. This aggressive tilt ability also makes the GraceHoop2 PolyPro fold-up feature possible.

Keeps your fabric in place.
The GraceHoop2 PolyPro come equipped with a set of EdgeTools. The EdgeTool provides the best way ever to quilt the edges and the corners of your quilt. The EdgeTool comes as a set of two (fabric not included) and makes it easy to pin a cloth sleeve to the edge and/or corner of your quilt. With fabric installed and pinned to your quilt edge, the EdgeTool acts as a weight to simulate fabric draping over the side of the hoop while you are pressing the outer hoop down over the inner hoop. This would not be possible with a round hoop.

Easy toting and storage.
We recognize the need for a hoop that is collapsible and easy-to-store. The GraceHoop2 PolyPro is specially designed with a fold-up feature that makes it easy to lift and tuck away. The arm and hoop fold down evenly with the plane of the stand, while the front foot also folds up to parallel. The side feet detach and hook onto the back of the stand. With the GraceHoop PolyPro folded up, the Lift-and-Tote handle is perfectly positioned for picking up the entire unit and toting it or storing it away.

Warranty.
The Poly Pro GraceHoop2 carries a one year limited warranty against breakage or warping.
