Quilting the Quilt - Which CS Feature To use<br />

Phase 4 - Backgrounds<br />

Pantographs using Edge_To_Edge<br />

often puts gaps at the edges. If needed, plan on oversizing the first E2E boundary so<br />

the quilting extends past the edges of the quilt to eliminate gaps. Use the Trim<br />

function as needed to remove the excess on the top and sides.<br />

Tip: To determine how much a pattern needs to extend beyond the<br />

quilt edges, move to a different quilt group, set the E2E pattern size<br />

to what you need, and use Repeat Patterns to move one single<br />

repeat into the preview area. Add a grid to the preview area so you<br />

can see (and measure) how much overlap you need.<br />

Steps to follow:<br />

1. Click the E2E icon.<br />

CS prompts you to click the four corners of the first boundary. Make this as large<br />

as possible to minimize the number of times the quilt must be rolled. CS also will<br />

create a new Quilt Group named Edge to Edge. If this quilt group name is already<br />

taken, it will prompt you to type in a new, unique name.<br />

2. Enter the quilt length in the Primary Settings 53<br />

area. Increase the actual<br />

measurement if the pattern will be stitching off the top & bottom edges of the quilt.<br />

Decrease the actual measurement to adjust for top and bottom margins and<br />

shrinkage (if needed).<br />
