Q1: What's the best fabric for this design?
Quick Note: The Valentine Hearts And Books design stitches beautifully on stable fabrics. Think quilting cotton, linen, or denim. Its light density style allows the fabric's texture to show through, which adds to the finished look without any puckering.
Q2: Am I stuck with the colors in the chart?
Never! The color chart is just a suggestion. Your machine will pause before each color change, giving you the perfect chance to use your own thread collection and make this pattern uniquely yours.
Q3: How can I get all the files at once?
Pro Tip: To get every size and format for the Valentine Hearts And Books collection in one go, just visit the product page. Click the big blue 'DOWNLOAD HERE' button to get the complete ZIP file instantly.
Q4: What's the difference between Trims and Stops?
They're two different things! 'Stops' are the number of pauses for you to change thread colors. 'Trims' refer to how many times the machine will cut the thread between different parts of the design.
Q5: Where can I find the color chart?
You have options! The color chart for this design is included as a PDF inside the main ZIP folder. You can also find it right on the product page or by selecting 'PDF' in your account's download section.
