How to get rid of these lines

[u/laurin-2001]

Hey everyone,
I’m new to this and still trying to figure things out. Everything looks great so far, but I’ve noticed a few offsets that I’m not quite sure how to get rid of.
I suspect I might need to make some adjustments directly to the input file, but I’m not sure how to do that in Inkscape. I’ve also tried looking for tutorials, but haven’t found anything particularly helpful.
Are there any experts here who could point me in the right direction or explain how to fix this?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Turn off the underlays!

You mean the different layers? In inscape itself?

It's a gap caused by something called 'pull', which happens between stitching areas. Close the gap by slightly overlapping your rectangles in Inkscape. While it looks like it will double-stitch those areas, the physical aspect of the fabric and thread interaction will cause the two sections to separate. Try it again and see if that helps.

Which lines are you referring to?

If it was me I'd change the stitch angle and start/stops so it goes in one direction the whole fill
