Tutorial 10-1: Creating Split Embroidery Designs
Stabilizer must always be used when embroidering
to stabilize the fabric. There are many types of
stabilizer; the type that you will use depends on the
type of fabric that you are embroidering on. For
large-size designs that are split into sections, the
stabilizer must be adhered to the fabric, for
example, iron-on stabilizer. In some cases, you may
need to use two pieces of stabilizer for your
embroidery.
When using spray adhesive, spray the adhesive
onto a hooped piece of stabilizer that is strong
enough for the entire large-size embroidery. In
some cases, you may need to use two pieces of
stabilizer for your embroidery.
1 Punch a hole at the end of each arrow on the
positioning sheet.
2 Place the positioning sheet on the fabric, and
then insert the tip of a marking pen into each
hole to mark the fabric.
3 Connect the points marked on the fabric to
draw reference lines.
The intersections of the lines drawn on the
fabric are marked as a, b, c and d.
In addition, the intersections of the lines on the
positioning sheet are marked as A, B, C and
D.
4 Place the positioning sheet on the fabric.
Align points A and D on the positioning sheet
with marks b and c on the fabric, and then
repeat steps 2 and 3 to draw reference lines
on the fabric for an embroidering position on
the right side.
Step 4 Attaching stabilizer to the
fabric
a
• For best results, attach the stabilizer to the fabric
(as described on this page). Without the correct
stabilizer, the design may become misaligned
due to puckering in the fabric.
• Be sure to check the recommendations on the
stabilizer package.
Step 5
Using the Positioning
Sheet to mark the
embroidering position on
the fabric
b
• The positioning sheets are included in the
package.
• The Positioning Sheets are also in the
[Positioning Sheet] folder and can be printed
out with a printer.
Location of the Positioning Sheets: C:\Program
Files (x86)\Brother\PE-DESIGN 11\Positioning
Sheet.
• The positioning sheets in the PDF files are at
actual size. When printing the positioning sheet
from the PDF file, be sure to print it at actual
size. Do not print while reducing or enlarging to
fit the paper size.
