I bought the SlimLine clamps 12x5 frame specifically to do 100" of a continuous lace pattern, but it just did not do a good job--It did not hold the silk and backing taut enough. I ended up hooping the silk with the standard 440mx300m hoop that came with the Amaya XT. It came out so well, even I can't tell where I rehooped each section to get 100" of endless lace embroidery. This technique should be a lot easier with the 11x13 Mighty Hoop.
