Automatic stitch building
Small stitch patterns, such as 9 mm stitches or MAXI stitches from
the sewing machine or embroidery designs created with the creative
software or a creative card, can be combined to create borders with
different corner shapes.
For that purpose one or several pattern edges are doubled, tripled or
more and then positioned within the embroidery hoop.
In order to join the single pattern edges exactly, the grid should be
activated. Of course, all available programs and functions of the
embroidery combination can also be used with this function.
