Please excuse my ignorance, so I will ask very sheepishly.... Could someone explain the term "In the hoop"? In other words what is the other alternative?

It means that the item is made totally in the embroidery hoop and not stitched up on a sewing machine after the embroidery is finished. Look in DBC for Mops ITH Bunny - it is a really good example.

Me too.
I love in-the-hoop: I'm not a great sewer that's why I collect so many of those designs. Whenever you need a quick gift that is my first choice ;o)

You do not need to apologize. We all were new once. We learned by asking and observing. So you are learning just as we did. Welcome and don't hesitate to ask any question.

Deb, I will give you a very good example. Go to Designs by Cuties, and D/L Shirlenes little Christmas Stocking. Put felt in your hoop, embroider. When you get to last color change, slide another pc of felt underneath and sew. Unhoop, complete stocking made. I made several of these stockings for Christmas last 2 years. They are so cute. Add whatever name you chose or leave unnamed. Hugs, Judy
