Echo creates a new stitchable pattern around the selected original pattern. The distance between the object and the echo is variable, as are the number of copies. Echo only works on one object at a time, so if you need to echo multiple connecting patterns, combine them first. An example would be combining the patterns in a border section to echo them as one unit. Echos can also be done inside a pattern section. When a pattern is selected for an inside echo, be sure to click INSIDE the section to get the echo.
