Creating original AcuFil design patterns
You can create your own AcuFil design patterns by
combining the element patterns in the editing mode.
Press the editing mode key to enter the editing mode.
Press the hoop selection key and the hoop selection
window will open.
Select the hoop AQ and press the OK key.
The editing window for the hoop AQ will open.
The thick grey lines indicate boundaries of base areas for
the AcuFil design pattern.
There are 4 base areas as shown, which are used as the
divisors when calculating an optimum pattern size.
60x180 mm
120x 180 mm 120x90 mm 60x90 mm
(2.4x7.1 in)
(4.7x7.1 in) (4.7x3.5 in) (2.4x3.5 in)
Select the desired element patterns (Stippling Parts 1 to
20) and arrange them to fill up the desired base area
completely.
You may duplicate a 60x90 mm pattern and combine them
to make a larger pattern.
NOTE:
Leave an outer margin (grey area) when laying out
element patterns since the AcuFil Calculator will adjust the
pattern size to 90-110% of the original size.
Press the OK key if the layout and arrangement are
satisfactory.
Press the key to open the AcuFil Calculator window.
Enter the size of the embroidery area to be stippled.
Calculate the size and save the adjusted pattern to print
the template sheet (see the previous page).
