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 (see page 162).

a

Draw the stitch design on the grid sheet 
(part code SA507, X81277-151). 

b

Decide the spacing of the stitch.

*

By adjusting the spacing of a stitch, you can create 
various patterns with one stitch.

c

Place points where the pattern intersects 
with the grid, and connect all the points 
with a line.

d

Determine the x and y coordinates of each 
of the marked points. 

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.

• Stitches can be designed more easily with 

MY CUSTOM STITCH

™

 if you first draw the 

stitch on the included grid sheet.

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.

Memo

• This will determine the stitch design that will 

be sewn.
