4 - Choose "Janome GigaHoop - Horizontal" or "Janome GigaHoop -Vertical" option (Picture No. 2). Typical position is horizontal, with two overlapping hoops.

| 5 - You can see now, that the design exceeds size of hoops drawn behind and therefore must be split into two parts. (Picture No. 3). Use "Freehand Select Mode" to select stitches you want to cut out (separate). More information regarding splitting is available in "Interactive Free-Hand Splitting" tutorial. |
