Guess I should have mentioned that the quilt won't fit in the hoop. I put my stabilizer in the hoop, position the quilt sandwich over that after spraying the stabilizer with 505 spray & fix or something similar. Then I use pins near the hoop but out of the way to fasten the layers together more.
I pick simple designs more like outlines. My Babylock Esante has specific quilting designs too. Hope that helps
