Use Create Layouts > Insert Graphic Marker to insert a graphic marker representing adhesive stickers attached to the fabric to indicate location and orientation.

Graphic markers are image files and there is no stitching involved. They are used in printouts to help with your placement when sewing.

To use graphic markers...

2Use the Insert Graphic Marker tool to insert markers as required. You’ll find a selection under the Hatch Pictures > Graphics Markers folder.
