Length

Set the Length of Running stitch from 0.3 to 12mm in steps of 0.1mm.

The initial setting is 2.0 mm.

Cutwork

The cutwork needle features allow you to draw a cutting line within your design, optimized for the INSPIRA® Cutwork Needles. Use two or four cutwork needles, and add secure points for fabric stability.

Create Cutwork Needle Line

Enable the cutwork needle feature. By default this feature is not selected (checked).

Method

Choose between:

By default 2 needles is selected.

With 2 needles, a bladed needle set at one angle is used to cut around the shape, and then the second needle travels around the shape cutting at a different angle.

With 4 needles a more precise cutting method is used, where each needle is used for the section of the shape that closely matches its angle. This method is recommended for more delicate fabrics.

Secure Points

Select Include Secure Points to create gaps in the cutwork needle line. By default Include Secure Points is selected.

This allows the cut fabric to remain attached for stability while all the cutwork needle lines are created. Afterwards it can be easily trimmed with scissors.

Set the Distance Between Secure Points from 10mm to 100mm in steps of 1mm. The initial setting is 30mm.
