NOT DEFINED: Embroidery machines that feature automatic thread color display will automatically switch the display to the specified color. If you are using such a machine and if you want to be able to select manually the color for a monochrome pattern, you can select NOT DEFINED.

Colors for creating appliqués: You can create appliqués using the three special colors shown in the above illustration. APPLIQUE MATERIAL marks the outline of the region to cut from the appliqué material. APPLIQUE POSITION marks the position on the backing material where the appliqué must be sewn.

APPLIQUE sews the appliqué on the backing material.

b Memo:

By using the Applique Wizard, appliqués can easily be created. For details, refer to “Creating appliqués (Applique Wizard)” on page 167.
