Sequencing embroidery objects

The embroidery objects comprising a design form a ‘stitching sequence’. It is good practice to analyze and plan design shapes and stitching sequence in advance. Shapes need to be clearly defined to make them easy to embroider. The best shapes have relatively constant width, with smooth edges, no sharp turns and no small, protruding details. Details should always be stitched last.

If you are digitizing manually in Wilcom Workspace, objects are stitched in the order in which they were created. If you have converted a design directly from CorelDRAW Graphics to Wilcom Workspace, EmbroideryStudio uses automatic sequencing to determine the stitching sequence. You can always manually adjust the sequence to improve the stitchout – e.g. to minimize color changes.
