Embroider an Endless Design 1. Before attaching the Endless Embroidery Hoop, turn on the power switch to move the carriage to the embroidery standby position. Place a full bobbin in the bobbin case, then replace the bobbin case cover. 2. With the Futura program open, attach the Endless Embroidery Hoop. From the main menu, select 'File', then scroll down to 'New'. The screen will display a likeness of the endless hoop and the sewing feld. It will be necessary to have the Endless Embroidery Hoop on the machine in order to use the endless embroidery function. If this hoop is not on the machine, you will instead see an image of your machine's large hoop on the PC screen. 3. Select the desired endless embroidery design. The selected design appears in "ghost form". Right click outside the hoop area on screen. When the pop-up menu appears, left click on Apply. You can load one of the Endless Hoop designs that come with the 'Design Library'. From the main menu select 'Create' and then 'Design Library'. Select 'for Endless Hoop' category and choose a design of your liking. Image 1 Design displayed with Endless Hoop in the software. Image 1 Dessin affiché avec Cerceau en Continu dans le logiciel.

From the main menu, click on 'File', then scroll down and click on 'Transmit to Futura machine' to transfer the data to the machine. Once you have transferred the data to the machine, a dialogue box appears called 'Offset Preview'. You will see your selected design in the center within a white background area, with the alignment stitches above and below the design. You will also see images of the same design both above and below the center design. The 'Offset Preview' function allows you to change the offset distance, while previewing how the result will look even before you stitch out the segments. Altering the offset will allow you to have the endless hoop segments intersect by decreasing the distance between them, or leave a gap between the segments by increasing the distance between them. Attention! Offset distance can only be applied within the boundaries of the Endless Hoop embroidery area (the white background display area). The movement of the slide bar moves the placement of the bottom L-shaped alignment stitches. These alignment stitches can only be within the Endless Hoop embroidery area.

Embroider an Endless Design
1. Before attaching the Endless Embroidery Hoop, turn on
the power switch to move the carriage to the embroidery
standby position. Place a full bobbin in the bobbin case,
then replace the bobbin case cover.
2. With the Futura program open, attach the Endless
Embroidery Hoop. From the main menu, select
‘File’
, then
scroll down to
‘New’
. The screen will display a likeness of
the endless hoop and the sewing feld. It will be necessary
to have the Endless Embroidery Hoop on the machine in
order to use the endless embroidery function. If this hoop
is not on the machine, you will instead see an image of
your machine’s large hoop on the PC screen.
3. Select the desired endless embroidery design. The
selected design appears in “ghost form”. Right click
outside the hoop area on screen. When the pop-up menu
appears, left click on Apply.
Once you have transferred the data to the machine, a dialogue
box appears called

design in the center within a white background area, with the
alignment stitches above and below the design. You will also
see images of the same design both above and below the
center design.
The
‘Offset Preview’
function allows you to change the offset
distance, while previewing how the result will look even before
you stitch out the segments. Altering the offset will allow you to
have the endless hoop segments intersect by decreasing the
