I'm working on 5-panel soft poplin hats which I do not like because the design 
usually puckers a little. I have found a solution that is working for me and 
thought I would pass it along for what it is worth. I use the WACF and a 2005 
Amaya.
I place my stiff hat backing behind the buckram panel, next to the hat fabric 
and hoop. I turn the sweatband out all the way around to get a good grip on the 
hat and then pull the top and sides down in back and clamp the material. You 
want a smooth looking front. This method has given me good registration on all 
designs, to date. If the top is still high enough to flag a little, the machine 
will stop for a thread break but the thread is not broken. Just push down on 
the hat's button and push go on the machine, it should finish with no more 
problems.
Thanks to all of you for the help you all have given me. Hope this helps 
someone.
