CREATING YOUR DESIGN
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
1 2
To begin, load all the single-color cherub designs in the C
size that you want on your fabric. We are stitching on a
home machine that accepts a 105⁄8 x 16” hoop, so we will
start by loading 2 designs. If your hoop size or machine
cannot fit 2 files in the hoop at a time, just load 1 at a time!
Select the first cherub and use the EDIT feature to rotate or
move the design as needed. Since we will be merging 2 files
into 1 hooping, this design will need to be turned and can be
pulled towards the top of the hoop while we are working on
adding in the next file.

Now, use the ADD feature to place your next cherub beside
the first, matching their orientations. TIP: Use the Multiple
Selection tool to select both files and hit the dot in the
center of the arrows to CENTER the two in your hoop!
With your first 2 cherubs chosen and centered, your design
is ready to begin stitching. Note that each file is completed
in one step and one color. TIP: If your embroidery machine
offers a Projection feature, use it to help with placement!
