Pro-Stitcher Step-by-Step Instructions
The following pattern file formats can be loaded into
the Pro-Stitcher using the USB flash memory stick:
*.hqf
This is the “Handi Quilter” format as gener-
ated by Art & Stitch and other software packages. the
Baby Lock Pro-Stitcher will read all patterns in this
format.
*.qli
This format is generated for Statler Stitcher
®
systems. The Pro-Stitcher will read most patterns
of this format. However, patterns that are encrypted
cannot be read.
*.txt
This is the file format for the PC Quilter.
*.tap
Saving a pattern directly on the Pro-Stitcher
(either using the Freehand option or just saving
changes to a pattern), will result in a file in this
format.
With the Pro-Stitcher and quilting machine powered
on, the first screen visible is the main menu screen
(
Figure 6
).
Press the “Library” button to access the primary Li-
brary screen. The USB flash drive should be plugged
into one of the USB ports as previously described.
Press the “Load Pattern” button to open the design
library, which consists of all the quilt patterns stored
on either the USB flash drive or the local hard drive.
