May I butt in here? My machine was too old for magnetic hoops compatible… so I merely discarded the inside hoop of my largest set, and used clips to secure my quilt to the outside edges of the outside hoop—-being careful they were not in the way of the 'jumping' foot. Stabilizer is not really needed with the layered quilt. I now have longarm frame setup, so don’t quilt w emb machine anymore. I do admit that this method works much better as "quilt as you go", one block at a time. Give it a try with some strong clips.
