Default quilting on '17 white

I found the video of Mr. Latimer explaining the major engineering involved in changing out machine parts to be able to use a modern quilting foot. Definitely too much for me. My baby is presently on the porch being cleaned and oiled and when I get it back in action I will use the loose pressure no foot approach. One question: does anyone have input as to whether I as a novice fmq'er should use an embroidery hoop like I have seen some people do? Would it make it easier to learn? No offense to you tubers, but they make their profession looking good, so heaven only knows how difficult things may be. As an aside, I used to do stitchwork by hand but arthritis and Dupuytrans syndrome in both hands have made this an impossibility. I was excited to find the wonderful work so many people are doing on their home machines.
