applications.

In this section, we will use Design Center to manually create an embroidery pattern from an image
using a four-stage procedure.

where a few objects will be added and the layout will be rearranged.

a custom stitch pattern.
3. Creating Large-Size Embroidery Patterns
3-1. Designing a large-size embroidery pattern
In this section, we will design an embroidery pattern that is too large to be sewn in a normal
embroidery hoop and therefore must be divided into sections.
3-2. Embroidering large-size embroidery patterns
In this section, we will sew the separate sections of the embroidery pattern to create large-size
embroidery.
