Ever want to resize a design and have the special fill stitches remain? When you resize a design, want the stitch count to adjust accordingly? Do you have a machine with a smaller hoop, but still want to use larger designs? Do you have a multi-position hoop and want to know how to break a design to use with it? Want software to automatically break a large design for you? Want to take a design and resize it so it is larger than your largest hoop and still be able to stitch it out on your existing machine?
Your software prayers have been answered with the tool packs SizeWorks and HoopWorks from Designer's Gallery. These two programs make such great partner software because they are often used hand in hand in helping you accomplish just such things mentioned. In this class we will run through a number of resizing exercises to explore SizeWorks features' a couple scenarios using HoopWorks to split designs' and a scenario where we use SizeWorks & HoopWorks to size and split a design. This class covers the basics on both of these programs. We will be using designs from Amazing Designs® for the class exercises and the design will be provided as part of the class.
