_Embroidery Hoops_

_(Sizes 4, 5, 6, 7 inch.)_

THE "QUEEN" REQUIRES NO WINDING,

the cushioned elastic spring band gives a uniform pressure all the way round and holds a light or heavy fabric tightly and with equal firmness.

MRS. EMMA HAYWOOD, =of the "Ladies' Home Journal," writes=:--"I consider your 'QUEEN' Embroidery Hoop a great advance on the old-fashioned Hoops. It holds the material firmly without injury."
