Thank you. Got my Durkee easy frames today. You really helped me!!

[@cemclaurine141]

Thank you for your detail video, it really helped me understand the hoops and how to use it with my machine.

[@jensenbodhi6045]

You prolly dont care but if you are bored like me atm then you can watch all of the latest movies on Instaflixxer. Been watching with my brother for the last weeks :)

[@conradxzavier4913]

@Jensen Bodhi Definitely, I've been using InstaFlixxer for years myself =)

[@crcpeach]

I LOVE your combination! I have a Highland and just purchased a Janome MB4, so that I could take it places to do on-the-spot personalization. Thank you for your videos!

[@DianaSmithMB]

Thanks I love all of my machines.

[@janwebster3749]

Just brought the frames that was a great help, especially the fact that I don’t always need to use sticky back stabiliser, I have so much of normal stabiliser that I what to use up. Also just brought the Brother VR single needle so the frames are going to be a great help.thank you

[@DianaSmithMB]

you are so welcome.

[@Kim.Artman]

Thanks for the great information

[@robbiecoker6986]

what stabilizer are you using to put on the hat frame and where can I find it?

[@DianaSmithMB]

I use both sticky stabilizer and just the reg. cut away. I get them at www.threadart.com

[@candlesoftheearthbestcandl995]

I have the frames and they are new and do come with notches cut into the frame themselves. Will I not be able to see them? TIA

[@beccaleonard828]

Will this large hoop do larger shirts like ladies or men’s

[@DianaSmithMB]

It will only do like a 7.5 x7.5 the M1 hoop that came with the machine will do a 7.5 x 9 " so it will fit the adult shirts.

[@kcjd8659]

Are you still liking your Highland machine?

[@DianaSmithMB]

I liked it right up untill I sold it. I had to make room so I had to sell it.

[@mlm7598]

Will that work on the Brother machines (six needle)? I am liking the different sizes! Total newbie to all of this. I pick up my machine tomorrow so I am excited! :)

[@DianaSmithMB]

yes they will. Just make sure you order them from Durkee. You will not get them any cheaper any where else but in order to get the correct end brackets to fit you machine go to www.dehoops.com

What brand of sticky tape do you use?

[@DianaSmithMB]

It is by Duck Brand. But any good double sided tape will work. I have also used the double sided carpet tape but that is very sticky.

[@sandeeww1]

Thank you Diana. My husband just picked it up for me. It is the permanent type, I hope that's right.

[@patsyspencer4746]

How do you get the sticky stabilizer off the back of the frame? I'm having a heck of a time removing that stuff!

[@DianaSmithMB]

you can't get it all off. I just let it stay until I can't stand it anymore. Then I scrape most off and then you the Goo Gone to get rid of the rest of it.

Patsy Spencer I use Baby wipes

[@fubsyb4899]

windex is amazing

[@amyd5496]

How do you load these frames into the mb4? It only recognizes the M, T, J, and S frames that are pre-set in the machine.

[@DianaSmithMB]

Depending on the size of my design I will use the M1 hoop most and the M2 but best then to do is ALWAYS TRACE.

[@HeatherDykes]

@@DianaSmithMB Thank you. I am replying from a different google account as I am on a different computer. I have a 7X5 design that I am doing on the 8x8 EZ frame. When I load design into mb4 and trace, the trace goes way beyond the frame. I have the machine set on hoop M1. What am I doing wrong? You can email me if that would be easier: [e-mail] or even text me 931-314-4185. I am desperate. I have researched this issue for hours!

[@myronmitchell1791]

How much are these Durkee Frames? Ty

[@DianaSmithMB]

You can customize your set. Here the link to Durkee you can see what to get. dehoops.com/Customize-Your-EZ-Frames-Step-1.asp

[@lisajones6543]

You didn't lift the back of the shirt out of the way - doesn't it embroider through the front and back? I'm new to this.......

[@sharon-z]

Agree!

[@ealfaro5736]

I would think hooping the shirt with the neck opening to the front (and rotating your design 180* on the machine) would work better.

[@jacksonskyler69]

Yes she didn’t show how to place on the machine. The way she frame it look like it was going to stitch front and back together?

[@cindybloom2760]

That was my immediate thought, too. Seems like the neck is too tight to be able to allow insertion of the machine arm through it.

[@myronmitchell1791]

Are these Frames Better than the EZ frames?

[@DianaSmithMB]

The EZ-frames are a Durkee . And they are much better then the Fast frames.

[@myronmitchell1791]

lol, I meant Fast Frames
