  5. Rotate Copies – Choose to Replicate and rotate 1 copy, 2 copies, 3 copies or 5 copies.Rotate copies

The second tab under the Replicate Panel gives you even more options on choosing how many and where to replicate the design to.

  1. Number of copies – Choose how many copies you would like to replicate of your design.
  2. Position of each Copy – Choose what direction you would like the copies to replicate in.
  3. Rotate each Copy – Choose a certain degree to replicate those copies to.Rotate number copies copyIn the photo above, I chose to make 3 copies, rotated to the right at 30 degrees. So each copy will rotate 30 degrees from the previous one.

There is so much that you can do with this Silhouette software and every time I open it, I love seeing what it can do.

The design I used in my example can be found in the May bundle at SoFontsy – it’s called Sports Ball Love/Mom Hearts by Svg Cuttables.
