Feature: Creating Text Blocks<br />
Steps to follow:<br />
Quick Reference Sheets<br />
Quick Ref Text Blocks<br />
1. Right Click in an open area of the preview area. It is a good idea to have created<br />
a reference boundary so you can size the text to fit the space on the quilt. In our<br />
example, we are using the top border.<br />
2. Click on 'Text Property' in the dialog box that appears.<br />
3. Click in the text box and type your message. The text box looks small, but will<br />
handle long phrases. Remember that CS will treat each phrase as a pattern, so if<br />
your phrase needs two (or more) lines, you need to create 2 (or more) text patterns.<br />
4. Click on 'Place Text' when done, and the Font dialog box appears.<br />
5. Choose the font style you like. Preview styles in the 'Sample' box. Choose any<br />
font size because you will need to modify it to fit your boundary anyway.<br />
6. Click 'OK', the text pattern is positioned. Resize as needed.<br />
7. Save the Project.<br />

8. Click on Start_Quilting and the sewing head will move to the Start of the<br />
first letter. CS stitches all letters continuously, dragging the thread between them,<br />
and only stops for the bobbin pull-up at the end of the phrase pattern. Remember to<br />
click OK because it completes this process.<br />
