Multi-Hoop Multi-Hooping is a special feature in the FUTURA software that will allow embroidery data which is larger than a single embroidery hoop to be sent to the machine to stitch out, while making it easy to re-hoop the fabric so that each part of the design lines up exactly. This embroidery data may be a single design that is too large for the hoop or a combination of smaller embroidery elements and/or lettering, that when combined together make a much larger finished design. See Fig. 1. The Multi-Hoop feature splits the design elements in up to four different parts; and then sews them precisely, matching one section to the other. When re-hooping the fabric, the Multihoop feature will compensate for misalignment if the fabric has been placed slightly askew in the hoop. Fig. 1 Fig. 1 Fig. 1 When stitching an embroidery design that is too large for the hoop, it can be difficult to re-hoop the fabric with exact alignment. Multi-Hoop utilizes a system where three alignment points (A, B, and C) are input on cross lines that have been marked onto the fabric. When these points are input, they inform the machine exactly as to how the fabric is positioned into the hoop and will therefore sew the design to the alignment of the cross lines. If the fabric is slightly askew, this system will compensate for it and sew accordingly. Please note: the Multi-Hoop feature will only compensate for a slight misalignment in the vertical cross line. Please try to hoop the fabric as accurately as possible. Preparing the Fabric P l e a s e n o t e : T h e f a b r i c m u s t b e l a r g e e n o u g h t o accommodate the amount of hoops that will be required to stitch out the design. 1. Using a very fine-lined water soluble marker, mark a line vertically down the center of the fabric. 2. Mark a line horizontally across the center of the fabric. The vertical and horizontal lines must be at precise right angles to each other. These lines will now be referred to as the"cross lines". These cross lines will be used to set the fabric into the hoop according to the divided design layout. Fig. 2 Fig. 2 Fig. 2 Intersection of cross lines must be at perfect 90 degree angles. L'intersection de lignes de marquage doit être à un angle parfait de 90 degré.
