I use a John James Betweens #11. These are one of my favourite brands.

Thanks for posting these, Andrea. Is your other hand under the hoop, pushing up?

Yes, right! I use the forefinger of my left hand to push the quilt up a little.

Your quilting is amazing.....Is it relaxing to you? It is good that you can sit beside the window for
natural lighting.

I love to sit at near the terrace door the whole day and work on my quilts! The light is perfect and I can see all the birds in the garden, the roses in the summer and the snow in winter! :) It's very relaxing...

Your work is beautiful. Such a nice place to sit and quilt. I have a floor frame lie that also. I do use it some but also like to use a hoop in my lap.
