Ok this is all great information. I used to use a lap hoop then it broke. So I got a PVC stand frame. but it is hard to handle. so now I have made a "fan design frame" but it is so huge it takes up my entire living room. I am thinking of going back to a hoop.
My problem is i started on the floor frame at one end. I hate to pick out all that I have hand quilted so far and everyone it seems is saying start in the middle. I have a ton of pins and plan on pinning it to death will that work and continue with the end quilting or should I pick out?
