5.11 Quick Ref Edge To Edge<br />
Feature: Edge to Edge (E2E)<br />
Assumptions:<br />
Prep Step #1.) Measure the quilt length and width accurately before loading the quilt. If you<br />
need to stitch off the edge of the quilt, increase your total quilt length. If you are leaving a<br />
margin at the top and bottom, be sure to reduce your total quilt length by this amount. Also it<br />
is a good idea to reduce the length a little to accommodate shrinkage caused by the quilting.<br />
This could be from 1% to 5%, depending on the fabrics, batting and quilting density.<br />
Prep Step #2) Load the quilt and baste the outer edges.<br />
Prep Step #3) Choose a pattern and think about the scale. Large scale, open quilting results<br />
in a more supple quilt and small scale, dense quilting is a bit stiffer.<br />
Prep Step #4) Change the pattern details (height and width) to reflect the scale you prefer.<br />
Steps to follow:<br />
1. Click the E2E icon. CS prompts you to click the four corners of the first boundary.<br />
2. Enter the quilt length (adjusted if needed) in the Primary Settings area.<br />
CS measured the width in step 1, and gets the length from the Primary Settings. It now has<br />
enough information to automatically calculate the number of repeats and rows required. This<br />
is just a suggestion! All settings can be changed in Setup mode (but not in Edit mode).<br />
3. Check the E2E Setup Details:<br />
Size Settings:<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 mode.<br />
* Spacing refers to the amount of space between patterns, both horizontally and vertically.<br />
Adjust these numbers if needed to add or remove space between patterns, especially<br />
between the rows.<br />
Variable Settings:<br />
* Select Between Blocks use Connect Start And End for pantographs<br />
* Select Alternating type – allows staggered rows.<br />
* Select Registration Place Two Pins is the default (& method shown nere)<br />
* Maintain Aspect is similar to freeze aspect.<br />
