I have Pro+ and I used the applique feature. What I need to do is when the designs inside the bookmark are done stitching, have the machine stop so that I can slip the fabric under the hoop. Then I want to push start so the applique can finish the outside border. To clarify further, the first steps are not set up as aplique. I have regular designs on the inside stitch out. Then I used the applique tool to create the satin stitches on the edge of the book mark.
