Creating and Editing Embroidery Patterns
Using Design Center
In this section, we are going to manually create an embroidery pattern from an image using a four-stage
procedure. This pattern will be used later as the stepping stone to create a more complex embroidery pattern.
Follow the instructions in this section step by step. If you have to interrupt this exercise for any reason, it is
recommended to save the file (refer to Step 9, “Saving the file”, on page 38). You will be able to retrieve it later
and resume your work.
The complete procedure will take you through the different steps of a normal working session with Design
Center and will introduce you to its most important features.
