Adjust Embroidery

This page appears after the Load Embroidery page if you chose Filled Quilt Block; Inner Embroidery in the Select Quilt Block Style page.

If you loaded an embroidery that was too large for the specified quilt block, it will be outlined in red. Return to the Select Quilt Block Style page and choose a different size for the quilt block, or select another embroidery.
