| 1. A quilting data processing apparatus comprising:
a fabric image data input device that enters fabric image data relating to a fabric pattern used in quilting;
a sewing line data input device that enters sewing line data of a quilting pattern;
a mesh pattern setting device that sets a basic mesh pattern of a desired mesh shape;
a deformation mesh pattern creating device that creates a deformation mesh pattern by deforming the basic mesh pattern on
the basis of the sewing line data;
a deformation fabric image data creating device that creates deformation fabric image data modifying the fabric image data
on the basis of the deformation mesh pattern; and
a quilting pattern display device that displays the quilting pattern on the basis of the deformation fabric image data and
the sewing line data.
