Objects stitched with a Chenille stitch need to have a border stitched around to hold the stitches inside the shape and provide clearer edge definition for shapes. Offset Moss or Chain stitch generated inside the shape is used to define the shape, while outside Offset Moss or Chain stitch may used as a highlight.
This can be done autoamtically using the Compound Chenille tool with Complex Fill, when multiple offset borders can be automatically generated from the same boundary as the fill. Compound Chenille can automatically generate up to three offset borders before and up to three border after the fill stitching. Offset runs can be set up to stitch either Moss or Chain, at specific offsets and with specific needle heights. When the compound object is scaled, these offsets maintain all their values.
You can also digitize Compound Chenille borders around existing objects created with other input tools by excluding the fill stitching. See adding compound chenille borders.
Objects stitched with a Chenille stitch need to have a border stitched around to hold the stitches inside the shape. Compound Chenille allows multiple automatic offset borders to be automatically generated before and after the fill area stitching. Offset runs can be set up to stitch with either Moss or Chain, at specific offsets and with specific needle heights.
Only objects digitized with Complex Fill can use Compound Chenille. This section explains how to create automatic chenille using the Compound Chenille feature, as well as change stitch settings to obtain the best results.
