Once again, I hope that an answer is forthcoming right here, for all to see, and to aid all who have this issue or may have this issue in the future.
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

Different embroidery machines (make & model) have different sizes of sewing fields.  You didn't tell us what the make & model of your machine is, so that is the first thing you need to tell us.  Also, as far as I know (and I've been known to be incorrect on more than one occasion), you cannot change the size of the sewing field.  If you design is too big for your machine, it's too big.  Even if the big hoop fits.
Grant me the ability to change the things I can, the strength to accept the things I cannot and the wisdom to recognize the difference.
