3.3 Quilt Patterns<br />
There are a mattilion different quilting patterns available today. Good choices are<br />
continuous curves, also called continuous line designs. By definition, a<br />
continuous-line design has only one start and one stop.<br />
Block patterns 65 are usually a single pattern and frequently have the start and stop<br />
at the same point. Continuous line patterns 65 are multiple repeats of the same<br />
pattern, with the end of one pattern connected to the start of the next, along the<br />
same (straight) line. They also have only one start and one stop but not at the same<br />
point.<br />
Point To Point patterns 66<br />
must be continuous because the end of one pattern is<br />
connected to the beginning of the next. The connected patterns do not have to be<br />
along the same (straight) line.<br />
Choosing the right pattern for each section of the quilt is important. CS has several<br />
features that can create new patterns too.<br />
* Record function uses the movement of the machine head to create a new<br />
pattern.<br />
* Circular Array uses one pattern & repeats it in a circular fashion to create a new<br />
pattern.<br />
* The Group function allows individual patterns to be positioned, and then<br />
combined so the group of patterns now acts like a single pattern.<br />
* Text can be inserted as a pattern using any standard Windows font.<br />
The record function is part of Regulated Stitching. The Circular Array and Group<br />
Patterns are both (right click) Edit functions.
