Choose a pattern, change the size for the scale needed, input the total quilt length<br />
and choose the Alternating Type. CS measured the width in step 1, and gets the<br />
length from the Primary Settings 53 . It now has enough information to automatically<br />
calculate the number of repeats and rows required.<br />
3. Check the E2E Setup Details 52 : These were described before, but it is worth<br />
repeating.<br />
Size Settings 53 :<br />
* Pattern Width and Pattern Height may be different from what you started with.<br />
* Repeats and Rows have been set but can be changed if you do it in the setup<br />
mode (which means don’t close the E2E Setup box until you are sure<br />
adjustments are done).<br />
* Spacing refers to the amount of space between patterns, both horizontally and<br />
vertically. Adjust these numbers if needed to add or remove space between<br />
patterns, especially between the rows.<br />
Variable Settings 53<br />
:<br />
* Select Between Blocks describes what you want CS to do between blocks.<br />
Connect Start And End is preferred for pantographs.<br />
Bobbin Pullup is used if each repeat is a separate block pattern. CS automatically<br />
switches to Bobbin Pullup if the repeated patterns have become disconnected.<br />
* Select Alternating type – allows staggered rows.<br />
None means don’t stagger the rows.<br />
Plus Row On Top means one extra repeat will be added to the first row and every<br />
other row.<br />
Minus Row On Top means one repeat is taken away from the first row and every<br />
other row.<br />
* Select Registration refers to the method of spacing the rows properly every time<br />
the quilt is rolled. Place Two Pins means CS will pick the registration points and<br />
you need to mark them (with pins or a marker). Use Start Point and End Point<br />
means CS will use the start and end point of the previous row as the registration<br />
points. Due to variations in patterns, Place Two Pins is the safest (and the<br />
default).<br />
* Maintain Aspect means CS will try to keep the adjusted pattern ratio (length:height)<br />
the same as the original pattern. This can’t always be done however because the<br />
pattern dimensions may not share common factors with the quilt dimensions. For<br />
quilters who ‘don’t do math’, this just means it won’t fit without a little stretching.<br />
4. Look at the image in the preview area. WYSIWYQ - What you see is what<br />
you quilt, so if you don’t like it, change it now.
