I have the BabyLock Ellegante. Yes, they were re-hooped. The Sharman's Vintage Garden center was re-hooped 17 times, and there is about 32 hours of just embroidery on it. The entire quilt is in the neighborhood of 2 million stitches. I have developed a technique for perfect placement hooping that works great. It doesn't use any special expensive equipment and will work with any machine. I'm writing an ebook on my technique in the near future, just can't seem to find the time to work on it. It is started but a long way from being finished. I have been teaching my technique for about 3 years in the Salt Lake City area and so far everyone loves it. Sorry I can't share it for free with you but I feel that would be an injustice to many students who have paid to learn it. But if you are interested I can let you know when the book is finished.
Hugs, Gail
