Use General > New Blank Design to create a new empty design.

When you create a file, template settings are copied into the new design. Templates contain pre-set styles, defaults or objects, to make digitizing quicker and easier. You can choose to base default settings on a selected template as well as fabric settings. Optionally, choose a background fabric swatch to match selected fabric settings. See also Properties, Fabrics & Templates.

The only template available when the software is first run is the NORMAL template.

Fabric settings are a subset of template settings, fine-tuned to different fabric types. Selecting a matching fabric automatically customizes object properties for the intended fabric.
