What it means

The design fits the hoop nominally but exceeds the practical safe sew field.

Why it matters

Machines need more than mathematical fit; they need safe operating clearance.

Common triggers

  • edge-hugging layouts
  • caps
  • tight hoop margins

Typical fixes

  • reposition
  • scale down
  • choose another hoop/machine profile

Notes

  • This is one of the highest-value context-aware checks.
