[amayausers] Hello & hooping

Hello,
I just got my AMAYA XT and Design Shop Pro Plus right
before Thanksgiving.  I have been monitoring the amaya
users group since the beginning of summer.  I have
already learned a ton of information and I have
printed out lots of hints that have been posted in
this group.  Thank you all!!  Sharon and Rod have also
been a great help to me.

I have been test stitching different designs and
playing with MT, bobbin tension etc.  I am finally
happy with my stitch outs and I am ready to actually
do some shirts and a bag.  I do not yet have the
HoopMaster--it is on my list to get.  My question is,
how do I get things lined up properly so it stitches
in the right spot. Previously, I have used a D1
machine and I had a template and center marks on all
side of the hoop.  I don't see any templates for my
hoop or any markings on the hoops to help me align
things.  I figure I can use my old templates to mark
on the garment where I want center and then the x and
y middle points. I'm guessing I will have to measure
and mark on the hoops myself where the center of the
sides of my hoop are.??  On my D1 I could line the
needle up with the center mark on my garment if my
hooping job wasn't perfect. That way I would
definitely start stitching from the center point.  Is
there any way to do this on the AMAYA??

Hope my questions are not silly.  Its a big change
going from the D1 to the AMAYA.

Again, Thanks for all the help I've already gotten and
for all the future help.  This user group is
definitely a GREAT SUPPORT SYSTEM!!!
