Stitches Before Reducing Stitches After Reducing

On most designs, you can resize selections up to ten percent

without any adverse stitching affects. You may be able to resize by a

value greater than ten percent if you also change the thickness of

the thread used to sew the design area. Use a finer thread for areas

you have reduced and a thicker thread for areas you have enlarged.

You can resize your selection using the Resize tool that is

located on the Stitches-in-Space toolbar.

Change the center of your resize operation

by dragging the cross to the desired location.

The numeric value of your custom center is

displayed on the bottom status bar.

Remember that the center of your hoop is

location 0, 0.

In the example shown, the center of the

resize operation has been set to the tip of the

beak.

Drag the cross to change

the center of the resize.

You can toggle between a custom center and the center of the

selection by clicking on the Custom Center toolbar button

located on the main toolbar.

Resize your selection by

dragging the boundary

Resize your selection by dragging the

circular boundary of your selection. The

percentage enlargement is displayed on

the bottom status bar.

In the example shown, the design

moves away from the resize center; that

is, the bird's beak.
