I just use the same thread that I'm using in the top for in the hoop projects. I just discovered how much fun in the hoop projects are. I'm just digitized my very first in the hoop design last week! I still have to write the instructions, though.
I just LOVE to do the In the Hoop designs. They are so much fun. I know you digitize, but you have to check out this website:

I've done the headband, and it took a few tries, but it is really fun. I have a pattern for the coinsac, but I haven't had a chance to try one yet.
What are "in the hoop" projects?
In the hoop is totally done in the hoop. You put a back on the design, and it has a covered edging. You don't need to do anything on the sewing machine to put it together. Here are some pages of things I've made. Maybe this will help:

And here is a weird website, but I loved this luggage tag!! The directions are on on the site, but this might help to understand in the hoop.

How do you all wash your pettiskirts? My daughters white one is a mess after a week in Disney! Thanks!

Some of the sites I looked at, says they shouldn't be washed, that you just spot clean them. If it's really bad........ I don't know, maybe you should try to gentle wash or even woolite?
