5.9 Quick Ref Trim Inside
Feature: Trim Pattern - Inside
Steps to follow:
1. Click on the Boundary icon and follow the prompts to define the boundary of the
background area. If the project were to fill the background of an appliqued block, this would
be the outer edges of the block.
2. Move the background filler pattern in.
Use Pattern_to_Boundary or Repeat Patterns depending on how many
repeats are needed to fill the area. This example shows repeat patterns, nested vertically by
-.5". There is a gap on one side border and an overlap on the other which need to be
adjusted.
3. . Group the patterns together before adjusting the size and position. If the pattern doesn't
fit exactly, let it extend past the outer boundary, and trim the excess.
4. Choose Trim Inside and Click on the Trim icon. CS will prompt for a boundary. Use
as many points as needed to define the boundary of the applique.
5. Click Stop when done and CS will erase everything inside the boundary, leaving the filler
pattern in the background. Save the project often. Continue with additional Trims as
needed.
6. Click on Start_Quilting and CS moves the sewing head to the start of the pattern and
prompts for pulling up the bobbin thread. Click OK when ready to quilt. If multiple patterns
were moved into the boundary, they will stitch in the order they were moved. Click OK at the
end of the quilting as prompted.
