ABOUT A HOOP AND A STITCH

Hey! My name is Kayla Bates and I am so glad you have found me here. I have been married to my husband, Chad, for almost ten years and we have three children. Graham is six, Henry is three, and Hattie was born in February. As a family, we enjoy sports, being outside, and being with our extended families and church friends.


This little hobby began when I was in college and my Mom purchased an embroidery machine. The hobby took on clients and it grew. And, it grew. And, it became "official" in 2013 when I opened this LLC. For years, while also having a full time job and being a wife and mom, I worked late nights and weekends to keep up. But, no one could have predicted that Covid-19 would cause me to be furloughed (during maternity leave, no less). 


I have taken this opportunity to move this business forward and offer my wonderful customers more. More quantity, more variety, more personality. While I enjoy the custom work, in the form of birthday shirts and baby gifts, my favorite things are the holiday offerings and everyday wear. I hope you will follow along as new items are released and our kids (and us) are dressed better than ever!
