Step 4
Applying embossing/engraving
effects
A stamp can be made by sewing regions of a fill
stitch pattern with the fill stitch, satin stitch or the
base stitch set for the embroidery pattern in order
to create embossing and engraving effects.
In order to do this, the lines of the stitch pattern
must form closed regions. In our example, the
lines do not form closed regions, so we will need
to add enclosing lines.
1. Click on the Tool Box.
→ The shape of the pointer changes to
.
2. Click the upper-left corner of the work area.
3. Move the pointer along the top edge of the
work area, and then double-click the upper-
right corner to draw a line along the top edge.
4. Click the lower-left corner of the work area.
5. Move the pointer along the bottom edge of the
work area, and then double-click the lower-
right corner to draw a line along the bottom
edge of the work area.
6. Click (Region (engrave)) on the Tool
Box, and then click the first and fourth wave
regions.
→ These regions appear in red and will be
sewn with short stitches to give the effect
of engraving.
7. Click (Region (emboss)) on the Tool
Box, and then click the second and fifth wave
regions.
→ This region appears in blue and will be
sewn with no dropped stitches to give the
effect of embossing.
