FAQs
If I'm just starting my embroidery business, which size magnetic frame should be my very first purchase?
We highly recommend starting with the 6.5″ × 6.5″ (165 × 165 mm) Sewtalent magnetic hoop for Sister embroidery machines. It is one of the most versatile sizes, perfect for common jobs such as T‑shirt logos, patches, and small bags. This frame offers a good balance of sewing field and ease of handling, making it ideal for beginners learning fabric positioning and tension control.
Help! My needle hit the edge of the frame (a needle strike). Why did this happen and how can I prevent it?
This usually happens for two main reasons: you may have selected a hoop size in your machine software that is larger than the Sewtalent magnetic hoop’s actual sewing field, or your design was digitized too large. Always select the correct or smaller hoop option in your Sister embroidery machine, and run a trace test before stitching to avoid needle strikes and maintain stitching accuracy.
For a new employee, which has a shorter learning curve: training them on this magnetic frame or on a traditional screw hoop?
The magnetic hoop has a much shorter learning curve. With Sewtalent magnetic hooping stations, your team can simply snap and align the fabric without worrying about uneven tension as with traditional screw hoops. This intuitive process allows new operators on Sister models like SD1201CS or QA200 to work efficiently and achieve consistent embroidery results much faster.
How should I clean and maintain my Sewtalent magnetic hoop to ensure longevity?
Regular maintenance keeps your magnetic hoop performing smoothly. After each embroidery session, wipe away lint, dust, or metal flakes from the hoop surface and bracket joints. Avoid exposure to high heat or moisture that could weaken magnets. Lightly check screws and brackets for tightness, especially after switching between different Sister embroidery machine models, to ensure consistent clamping and frame stability.
