Use Edit > Apply Closest Join to join selected objects at the closest point. Re-apply closest join after editing.

When you are digitizing closed objects, the Closest Join method automatically calculates the closest join between them, saving you from thinking about entry and exit points. The Apply Closest Join feature allows you to (re-)apply closest join to objects after editing.

Note  The Apply Closest Join command is only enabled when two or more embroidery objects are selected.
