Tutorial 10-2: Creating Design for Multi-Position Hoops
Step 4
Checking the pattern
Click 1.
Check the sewing order of each pattern and
the number of times the hoop position will be
changed.
Only the patterns that would be sewn at the 
current position in the hoop installation order 
appear in the Design Page, and the 
embroidering area for the current hoop 
position is outlined in red.
(1) The position in the hoop installation order 
for the currently displayed pattern.
(2) To display information for patterns at 
other positions in the hoop installation 
order, click Previous or Next.
Saving the design
The entire design is saved as a single file 
(.pes).
Writing the design to an original 
card
A design for a multi-position hoop is created 
by considering the pattern in each hoop 
installation position as one pattern, then 
combining them.
Therefore, when this type of design is written 
to an original card, one multi-position hoop 
design is saved as a combination of multiple 
patterns.
: This pattern is sewn when the hoop is 
installed at the top installation position 
(position a).
: This pattern is sewn when the hoop is 
installed at the middle installation position 
(position b).
: This pattern is sewn when the hoop is 
installed at the bottom installation position 
(position c).
Therefore, the frame installation position 
sewing order for the pattern shown above is b, 
a, then c.

Note:
If a pattern is larger than the embroidery 
area or if a pattern is positioned so that it 
does not completely fit within an embroidery 
area, the error message appears. After the 
pattern causing the error is displayed, select 
the pattern and change its size or position.

is larger than the specified number, or if one of 
the patterns does not completely fit within an 
embroidery area, the error message appears.
