Reposition

There are several options for positioning a design

on the quilt. The primary method for positioning is

to create an Area based on the actual quilt and then

to use the Reposition or Skew tools to move the

design relative to that Area. However, if an Area is

not defined, the quilter may still use the Reposition

tools to place a design in the precise position desired

(Figure 5.79).

NOTE: The alignment tools found in the Skew/

Align panel and the Reposition functions in the

Reposition panel are mutually exclusive. The quilter

may need to turn off some Skew/Align options

before using the Reposition functions. For example,

if an Area is defined and Skew is turned on, the

design will be forced to skew (and thus position)

to the extents of the defined Area. To move the

design to a different location, the Skew option must

first be turned off. Likewise, if the design is set to

be stretched horizontally or vertically within the

defined Area, those alignment options must be

turned off before any of the functions in Repeat will

work. If other alignment options are selected, using

the Reposition tools will cause those alignment

settings to be turned off.

Position to a Corner

Four Corner buttons are available to position the

design based on the blue bounding box

(Figure 5.80). To use these tools, move the quilting

machine needle to a corner of the region on the

quilt where the design is to be quilted. If the top-

left corner is chosen, press the button on the

screen corresponding to the top left-hand corner;

the top left-hand corner of the design will now be

positioned where the quilting machine needle and

crosshairs are located.

Center

To position a design based on the center point, move

the quilting machine needle to the center point of

the block or other area of the quilt. Press the Center

button and the design will now be centered around

the current needle and crosshair position

(Figure 5.81).
