WHAT IF YOU UPDATE THE FILE, DO I HAVE TO RE-PURCHASE TO GET THE UPDATE?
We will do our best to notify those who have purchase and email the update. You never need to re-purchase a file. We are working on an automatic solution but currently, it is a manual process.
WHAT IF I PURCHASE A FILE TWICE?
If you ever purchase a file twice send an email along with the order number to onceuponahoop@gmail.com. You will then have the choice of a credit or exchange for another design of similar cost.
HOW DO YOU TEST YOUR FILES?
All files are tested in multiple sizes and formats. We use single sheet, medium weight tearaway unless the design requires more - such as heavy fill areas where we will float a second sheet of tearaway under the hoop.

We currently do not do custom work, requests are welcome but are not guaranteed.
