I don't use hoops although I do own Georgina's books which I find so complicated, I prefer the newer method name "Quilt as you go" and have done a number of quilts using this method http://www.quilterscache.com/H/howtoquiltoneatatime.html My largest project was this one which I was quite pleased with.
What is nice that you can get 2 quilts in one as QAYG are reversible!
If you google Quilt as you go you will get loads of links and info.
