Quilts in Creo can be trimmed in a few ways (see below).
- Adding a cut or slot as you do to remove material from solid features
- Trimming the quilt at its intersection with another quilt or to its own silhouette edge as it appears in a certain view
- Filleting corners of the quilt
- Trimming along a datum curve lying on the quilt
Today, we will see how to trim using curves. Defining a surface trim using a datum curve can be done by using a continuous chain of datum curves, inner surface edges, or solid model edges to trim a quilt

1: You can use a continuous chain of datum curves, inner surface edges, or solid model edges to trim a quilt

2: The grid covers the portion of the quilt to keep. When the arrow points in the first direction:

This is what you see

4: When the arrow points in the second direction

This is what you see when the arrow is pointing in the other direction
