Hi Steph, welcome from Newcastle in Australia. That is a big project for your second piece but I'm sure that any questions you have can be answered here.

Hi Steph and Welcome from Brisbane Australia. Love your avatar - pansies are gorgeous flowers with such lovely 'faces'.

Wow you have jumped from one size to the other but always remember whatever the size of the project you are working on it is always "one stitch at a time". Everyone here loves to help when you have a query and there is usually someone on the board what ever time of day it is in your part of the world.

Welcome from Vermont! I use Q-snaps and there are covers available to keep the rest of your fabric from getting grimy from handling. I like my 8x8 ones best since it's small enough it doesn't get heavy to hold.

Hi Steph, I normally use a 5" or 7" round hoop for a lot of my stitching - but then none of it is as big as yours. I do have a floor stand which I haven't used much yet but when I do it is really good for any of the Dimensions Gold kits I have done.

Hi and welcome from New Zealand, good luck with your stitching, I use a hood but a steel one and i luv it, I hav been stitching for a while but each time I still pick up a needle I relax and enjoy the moment.
