Use Create Point Area or Line 
to place points to create a line to define the edge of an area filled with small stitches in repeating patterns with or without a border, or an unenclosed line.
To draw the outline for a Line or Fill Area with Bezier Lines instead of Point Lines, click Bezier Mode 
to enable drawing Bezier curves, then draw your Line or Fill Area. See Bezier Mode.
After the fill area has been created, right-click it to use Fill Area and Line properties to change the fill type or pattern, the density, stitch angle, underlay and compensation, and the border width, density and color. You can also add an applique layer.

Mitered Corners and Closed Shapes
When creating satin line by placing points, the corners of a satin border are mitered automatically when you hold down Ctrl and click to place a corner point. If you wish to make a closed shape with mitered corners, such as a square or rectangle, join the shape in the middle of one of the sides, as shown in the example. If the shape is joined at a corner, that corner will not be mitered as it will simply be two straight end points in the same place, rather than a true corner.
When drawing this type of satin line shape, overlap the start and end points slightly to ensure a neat join.
