    Hi all, I have always liked quilting (and cross stitching) without a hoop. Today I decided to try a hoop with the quilt I'm doing for a Christmas gift for my son and his wife. I am trying a spoon (I know I've heard of it somewhere) under the quilt to stitch against. I am rocking the needle but see that rocking the spoon seems to help also. Do any of you have advice or tips on how to use the spoon? Thanks so much.
    This is the best group. I know I can always find great tips, stories and advice here!
