Sarah,
I would love to use my 830 jumbo hoop for Month 2. If you can find the time for the prep work required, I am sure many of us would benefit greatly from your guidance on doing applique' in the hoop early on in the BOM timeline. It's great practice for the follow-on months where you have digitized applique' designs--good opportunity to work out any difficulties we might have, and for some of us, to get a little more experience under our belts. If feasible on your end, it would be fantastic for us. But certainly understand if you can't.
Happy New Year!
Renata
