A border can either consist of several

small motifs or long sequenced designs.

With continuous designs, the end point of

one sequence very often is also the

starting point of the next sequence. EC on

PC will help you to easily find the exact

joining position, even if the fabric needs

rehooping.

Preparation:

With border embroidery, a line along the

border is usually marked on the fabric.

Use the template to hoop the fabric,

matching the marked line with one of the

vertical lines on the template.

Embroidering:

• start embroidery software

• open the design

• the start of the design is marked with a

circle and

the end with a cross

• mark the starting point of the design on

the fabric as required

• click the «Write to Machine» symbol to

start EC on PC

Upper thread

After repositioning the hoop, the

upper thread must be tightened

by rewinding the spool a little by

hand.
