Step 3
Checking the embroidering 
order
Check the sewing order to see the order that the 
design sections will be sewn and determine which 
parts of the fabric should be hooped.
The design sections are sewn in order from left to 
right, top to bottom.
Click 1.
Uncheck the Show about selected Object(s)
to view the separate design sections. Click on
Next and Previous to move back and forth
through each section.
Check the design, and then click Cancel.
Step 4
Attaching stabilizer to the 
fabric
Stabilizer must always be used when 
embroidering to stabilize the fabric. There are 
many types of stabilizer; the type that you will use 
depends on the type of fabric that you are 
embroidering on. For large-size designs that are 
split into sections, the stabilizer must be adhered 
to the fabric, for example, iron-on stabilizer. In 
some cases, you may need to use two pieces of 
stabilizer for your embroidery.
When using spray adhesive, spray the adhesive 
onto a hooped piece of stabilizer that is strong 
enough for the entire large-size embroidery. In 
some cases, you may need to use two pieces of 
stabilizer for your embroidery.

Note:
Before an embroidery pattern created in a 
custom Design Page is saved or transferred 
to an original card, running stitches are 
added at the edges of the design sections so 
that the design sections can easily be 
aligned during sewing. This alignment 
stitching appears in the NOT DEFINED color 
and cannot be edited.
