Me too, I'm always up for trying something new.
I haven't tried a larger hoop. I guess I'm a bit backward because I always wonder if I can get a design into a smaller hoop. If a design calls for a 5x7 hoop but will work in a smaller hoop(like the 5x5) I'll do it in the smaller hoop. Same with a design for a 4 inch hoop. If it's really small, I'll see if it will work in the 2 1/2 inch hoop. The smaller the hoop, the smaller the piece of stabilizer, the easier the project is to hoop(or float) and the less chance of any distortion. As long as it's not a real finely detailed or dense design, those are a whole 'nuther thing.
