I know many folks do it, but I was never successful. Re hooping, aligning the designs from one hooping to the next was not fun or easy to me and I had been using the embroidery machine for 5 years before I started to quilt. I also had an issue supporting the quilt so it didn't catch on anything. I had to stand there and hold part of the sandwich the whole time. I did use it for QAYG type throws where you quilt the blocks individually then join and also did a couple of outer borders using an endless hoop, but not the center.
