How to Build Your Own Fluffy using Husqvarna Viking Customizing™ and ColorSort™ Programs
	Start your Customizing program. Click on "View Designs" (the camera icon) and select the folder for your Fluffy Collection.
	Select all the leaves you would like to work with by clicking on them.
	Select all the stems you would like to work with by clicking on them.
	Finally, select all the flowers you would like to work with by clicking on them.
	Now rearrange the various design elements to create your own personal design. You can use the customizing functions: Rotate, Flip Vertical, Flip Horizontal, and Scaling a Stitch File to create your very own unique design WITHOUT DIGITIZING!
	Use the zoom functions to check that all leaf stems are tucked under the main stems. Then after you are satisfied with your arrangement, click on "Combine" and then click "Copy".
	Now open the ColorSort program and click on "Paste". Click on the "Sort Single" button to sort and consolidate the design colors.
	ColorSort will reduce your color changes in an instant! Save your new design for stitching.
	Take a look at your new design in Quick 3DStitch View. Wow! BYO makes YOU the Designer!

Creating the Dimensional Effect
	This is what a BYO Fluffy looks like after you've stitched it out.
	This is what the back side of a BYO Fluffy looks like after you've stitched it out. Notice the ring of white bobbin thread in the middle of each flower.
	Clip and/or pull out (I prefer to clip) the white bobbin thread only. Do NOT cut the top threads that have looped to the backside.
	After the bobbin thread has been removed from the backside, use a stiletto or small scissors to slip under the loops of satin stitches and pull them gently to the top.
	Voilà! You now have a three dimensional embroidered work of art!
