MY CUSTOM STITCH
Designing a Stitch
By using the MY CUSTOM STITCH function, you can
register stitches you have created yourself. You can also
sew designs combining MY CUSTOM STITCH creations
with built-in characters (page 53).
Memo
• Stitches that you create with MY CUSTOM STITCH
can be a maximum of 7 mm (approx. 9/32 inch)
wide and 37 mm (approx. 1-1/3 inches) long.
a
Draw the stitch design on the grid sheet.
Place points where the stitch pattern intersects with
the grid, and connect all the points with a line.
Memo
• Simplify the design so that it can be sewn as a
continuous line. For a more attractive stitch, close
the design by intersecting lines.
If the design is to be repeated and linked, the start
point and end point of the design should be at the
same height.
b
Determine the x and y coordinates of each of the
marked points.
