Hi there. I have been working out how to get embroidery designs placed properly for my summer clothing efforts using my Bernina V8 software. I could not find this anywhere in the help or manual, so I wrote it up and put it into the following PDF file for those of you who have the software.
Making a Custom Background Design Template for Clothing in Bernina V8
Here is a picture of the Jeans Vest Jacket back I managed to make the template for and then I discovered how to put it into the software so I can change the color and size.
I started with the line drawing in the pattern that I scanned into my computer and took it from there following the directions in my pdf file. So fun. Now I can place the embroidery onto the garment and know how large to make it and where it needs to go. I wonder what else I can use this for?
If you have the Bernina V8 software and have problems with it, I wrote a book last year that you may find useful if you don’t have it already. I wish I had discovered this before I published it or I would have included it into the book.
Sew happy everyone! Stay healthy and happy.
