About Hoop Doodles

Hoop Doodles

Modern Hand Embroidery

Hello,

I‘m Samantha AKA Hoop Doodles…

I’ve been into crafting of all kinds since my teenage years, but Hoop Doodles didn’t come into being until early 2021 as a way to keep myself sane while stuck at home poorly. While I had always enjoyed doing cross stitch, I decided I need a new Challenge and gave hand embroidery ago, I haven’t looked back since.

I‘m totally addicted and even though I’m back at work as a childminding assistant full time, Hoop Doodles has become my side hustle, where I sell my art as well as making custom embroidery for all occasions. Hello, I‘m Samantha AKA Hoop Doodles. I‘m a modern hand embroidery artist from Oxfordshire, England.

I design & make everything myself, using either Cotton or Linen Fabric and DMC embroidery thread. While I make embroidery hoops in all sizes I tend to work with 3, 4 & 5 inch hoops the most. Inspiration for my work comes from all corners Interest, from pop culture and film, literature, music and the great British countryside.
