so all I do is rest the hoop frame on the unquilted part of the quilt so my hand is free under the hoop and the needle in the other hand?

I just bought these awesome "thimbles" called Thimble It.
They are ovals that you use on the quilting finger and I think you could also use one for the underneath finger.
I got them on ebay b/c I couldn't find them at Joann's.
