You would have to rehoop if you have a small embroidery field. Some of
the newer machines have a locator that finds the stop point and
automatically rotates the design. Otherwise, I find rehooping that
accurately impossible. You could do a design where joiningg it
wouldn't have to be totally accurate. If you have digitizing software,
doing an original outline design is not at all difficult. If your
software does not have a digitizing package, you probably can't do it.

Another alternative is a Super Hoop-it-All. If you have an embroidery
only machine it will let you do 12x12 blocks that you have split it
the software. Otherwise, you can only do longer blocks.

My software does do digitizing. And it will do redwork.blackwork runs. My
hoop sizes might be the biggest drawback. And since I don't have (or
desire) a super sized hoop, I guess I'll have to send the blocks to Joan's
mom! :-)

Sorry, but Mom is booked for the foreseeable future. Next project is
making a replica of a quilt that two of my great grandmothers made for
me. One embroidered; the other quilted. ( I think I see a pattern
here! :)

I have already re-made the original, preserving the embroidered blocks.
It was falling apart from too much love. Now we're going to make a
copy, so that both of my sons will have one.
