Default Wall hanging on my embroidery machine

I am embroidering quilt blocks to put in a wall hanging and am having trouble with the design not lining up properly. It is a 5.8" x 5.8" design, however it keeps stitching out 5.8"x 5" and some of the design is overlapping. I am using a medium cutaway stabilizer as suggested. I have tried twice with the same problem, don't want to waste anymore fabric

Maybe it's the design, not you. Just a thought

I agree with pattypurple. They always advise doing a test stitch out to make sure the design isn't messed up. I would hoop some muslin and advance the design to where it started to overlap. If it does it on your test piece, I would contact the digitizer.

Did you shut it all down and start from the begging again! Maybe rebooting it all would reset the design correctly.
