Direction

Set the direction for the stitching. Choose from Unspecific (as drawn or traced), From Left or From Right.

Note: Use From Left or From Right to start on one side and finish on the other. They are ideal for patterns that repeat along a quilted row.

As Drawn

Select As Drawn to use the original lines exactly as drawn in the design.

When As Drawn is selected, hidden lines and lines drawn on top of other lines will be used in the design.

Note: The automatic method traces the best path through the drawing. It does not trace lines hidden by fills.
