I have quilted quite a few quilts, wall hangings, etc. on my embroidery machine. You put all three layers together as usual. You don't need any stabilizer, as the layers are thick enough. I use warm and natural or warm and white. Open the hoop quite a lot. In the beginning it seems that you can't hoop the layers, but it works. Make sure that you have no drag when you embroider. I not only put the quilt on a table, but I also lift the quilt with one arm on each side of the hoop, so the machine can move freely. Of course there is a lot of rehooping, but I love using my machine. You don't have to be exactly in the middle when you hoop. You can adjust that with your machine, but yes, you have to be straight. It takes some practice, but is a lot of fun. Good luck!
