I thought an endless hoop was my DH going round and round in circles complaining about my spending time at cute or at the janome instead of doing housework or lavishing attention on him. Does Janome have such a hoop?
I'm pleased you asked this question Modo - I didn't know, I have learnt from the answers too. Thank you.
here is a wonderful tutorial about endless hoops

Pfaff and Viking actually have an "Endless Hoop". You don't have to remove your hoop from the machine to move your fabric because the hoop has a pressure closure. You just release the pressure, move the fabric to the proper place and reapply the pressure. You can make any design endless, within reason, easily with the special hoop. Good question.*4U
I see U got your answers. it is a design usually a border as U can tell from your answers *4U
here you go!
Loretta pretty much gave you your answer. It makes doing borders easier.
modo, an endless hoop is really just like any other border design, except it has a marking for you to rehoop your design, so that you can start where you finished up at in the next hoop. Sorry, I can get the correct wording here. But it allows you to hoop to hearts content. HaHa. A flower for you.
No, it is a hoop, and there are designs specially made for it. Difference with those designs is a beginning and end cross to easily get a good fit-together.
