Program Motif Objects (Level 2 & 3)

Program Motifs are items that the software knows how to digitize, and unlike a regular motif, it will do so differently depending on the size of the design. Program motifs include French knots, candlewicks and eyelets (Level 3).

Program motifs follow the same drawing methods as a run, but given their size, making hard points obvious is difficult. They can run along outlines of shapes, or be used singly with short line segments. Due to their nature, they tie themselves in and out, so you could trim between if desired.

The Single eyelet size is controlled by making a two-point line. The starting point will be the center of the eyelet, and the second point will be the outer radius of the eyelet.

The only real consideration when using these stitch types is that knots are dimensional and have been programmed to emulate their hand-stitch counterpart, therefore they tend to produce a lot of stitches.
