Embroidery Magic 2 digitizing software stitches

Embroidery Magic has 3 different stitches to choose from.

The Running stitch is used for underlay, borders, texture and other uses. If you know in advance what setting you want for this or other stitches use the settings drop down menu, and left click on the stitch you want to set. Then change the stitch to the desired settings (you can adjust stitch length and density), then click OK.

To use this stitch - you click to place stitch points around the area. Once an area is completed - right click and the software will put the actual stitches in place.

The Column Fill stitch is used for small areas, usually .037" inches wide or less. The column fill stitch is also used for lettering.

To use this stitch you place points across from each other going from side to side. When you finished an area, right click, to put the stitches in place. See Example below -

Note: If you right click and the program does not add the actual stitches, it means you have one too many or few points. Either add or delete one more point and then right click. To delete a point hit the backspace key on your keyboard.

 Remember - when using a Column Fill stitch your points must end on an even number.

The Complex Fill stitch is used for larger areas. Usually larger than a Column fill stitch.

To use - You place your points by just clicking around the object.

Note: Two very important things to remember about using the complex fill stitch.

 1. Never place two points on top of each other

 2. Never cross points over each other. See examples below -

Once you have gone around the entire area - right click. You then choose End Object. Then you will have to left click to place the exit point. This is where you will tell that shape where you want the sewing to stop. It does not have to be exact, just in the general area. Once you have done this you will now need to left click inside the shape you are creating and move your mouse. You are now telling the shape which angle to sew the stitches. Then you need to left click again and set the other side of the angle.

Note: If you forget what needs to be done next with this stitch look at the bottom middle of the work area, you will see the stitch you're on and what it requires next.See example below:

Once you have done both of these you will see the stitches appear.

With each stitch you choose you also must choose the line type that you want to use to create your designs.

You have the choice of two: a straight line type    or an arch line type
