6. Art & Stitch
Art & Stitch is comprehensive quilting-design software for creating and modifying quilting designs. It is
included with Pro-Stitcher. Pro-Stitcher can pass designs quickly and easily into Art & Stitch so you can use
any of the Art & Stitch tools to modify the design however necessary. Art & Stitch automatically loads and
runs in the background when Pro-Stitcher starts, so passing files from Pro-Stitcher to Art & Stitch happens
very quickly.
To pass a design to Art & Stitch
1. Select Design, and then Art & Stitch. Press Open
screen to open the Art & Stitch software. If Art & Stitch
is open and has been licensed, the design will open in
Art & Stitch.
NOTE: If Art & Stitch has not yet been licensed, a
licensing screen will appear for entering license
information. You will not be able to save any
changes to the design until you activate the Art &
Stitch license. Follow the instructions in the Art &
Stitch instruction manual for offline activation.
2. Press Close to bypass registration and open the design.
When the design is passed into Art & Stitch, the
position information is maintained; as long as the
design is not moved in Art & Stitch, it will be in the
same location when it is passed back to Pro-Stitcher.
Pass the modified design back to Pro-Stitcher by
pressing the Pro-Stitcher button on the Art & Stitch
toolbar on the left-hand side of the Art & Stitch
screen.
CAUTION: If a design is opened in Art & Stitch without using the Pro-Stitcher software and the
Pro-Stitcher button is pressed to pass the design into the Pro-Stitcher software, the design will
be saved in its current state with the same name it had when it was opened. This could lead to
