I am making my first quilt! The top is done (Amish Tulip Quilt with appliques). I've done a great job if I have to say so myself. I'm ready to start putting layers together and I want to hand quilt. I have a little bit of back trouble so I'm looking for the most comfortable way to proceed. So here are my questions:

1) Does the floor hoop pull close enough that you can quilt easily without leaning forward? Can you sit up straight or even lean back on a sofa to use that? OR

2) Would a lap hoop be easier on my back because my position could be more flexible?

Thank you in advance for your advice! Thank you to the woman I bumped into at JoAnn Fabrics who told me about this site.
