Hello, and congratulations on both your baby and quilt! I have two little boys, and they are so much fun.
Good for you making your first quilt! And hand quilting it to boot! I sometimes hand quilt mine, and I don't use a frame. I just hold it in my lap like a prev. poster. (It keeps me warm that way, too. LOL!) I have never tried a floor hoop, so I can't really tell you one way or the other is better.
