When you create a design in BuzzEdit
™
for use on one of the Giant
Hoop-it-All
™
frames, you can place design sections into a number of
set hoop sections. Each side of the hoop is divided into four
overlapping embroidery areas. The offset for the embroidery areas
is predetermined in BuzzEdit
™
and cannot be changed in this
version. However, since these embroidery areas have significant
overlap, you will be able to access all areas of the embroidery
frame.
" Note: Some multi-hoops do not allow you to sew the entire
design area. For example, on both the Viking and the Pfaff
machines, the Giant Hoop-it-All
™
will hit the foot of the
sewing machine along the edges of the Giant Hoop-it-All
™
frame. Pfaff's own three-position multi-hoop will also jam the
needle on the edges. BuzzEdit
™
displays smaller hoop borders
in these cases and prevents you from placing stitches in the
forbidden areas. Thus, you are better protected from jamming
your needle, which can damage both your design and your
machine.

Custom Multi-Hoops
You can define your own grid of hoops (use View > Hoop
Properties) so that you can lay out multiple designs onto an
oversized design area. When you define a multi-hoop grid in this
manner, you must re-hoop your fabric by hand.
