  In this paper, two results are obtained on a hypergraph embedding problem.
The proof technique is itself of interest, being the first time amalgamations
have been used to address the embedding of hypergraphs.
  The first result finds necessary and sufficient conditions for the embedding
a hyperedge-colored copy of the complete 3-uniform hypergraph of order $m$,
$K_m^3$, into an $r$-factorization of $K_n^3$, providing that $n>
2m+(-1+\sqrt{8m^2-16m-7})/2$.
  The second result finds necessary and sufficient conditions for an embedding
when not only are the colors of the hyperedges of $K_m^3$ given, but also the
colors of all the "pieces" of hyperedges on these $m$ vertices are prescribed
(the "pieces" of hyperedges are eventually extended to hyperedges of size 3 in
$K_n^3$ by adding new vertices to the hyperedges of size 1 and 2 during the
embedding process).
  Both these results make progress towards settling an old question of Cameron
on completing partial 1-factorizations of hypergraphs.
