As I mentioned in my first post, I needed a hoop as large as 25-30" for my application (rounded hats). But since the machine can only work with 20", and the embroidery must go round the whole hat, I decided to divide the design into 2, following these steps: 1. embroider each half of the hat separately as shown on pic 1 (http://rapidshare.com/files/204663564/illust.jpg - only 14kb) 2. join the 2 halves together as shown in pic 2 3. the result is what's shown in pic 3 Now my question is: what's everyone's opinion on how I could neetly align and join the parts together? I know it must show. But I wouldn't like a visible gap. What do you guys think? Thanks once again for all ur inputs. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
