Hey, that's my kid! I just showed her that she's "famous," and she's pretty psyched.
Not sure if this is what you meant, Juli, but I run a bead of glue around the inner ring of the hoop, press the fabric down all around with my fingers, let the glue dry, and then just use pinking shears to cut away the excess fabric. It's very tidy.
