Did you know you can use the hundreds of pattern designs that come with Bernina Embroidery Software individually? They can be used for more than just outlines and fills. The Pattern Stamp tool allows you to place one individual pattern in your design.
To use the Pattern Stamp:
- Go to the Arrange Menu and choose Pattern Stamp…
- Choose the Symbol Set and Pattern you want to use.
- Click Ok. The pattern will become attached to your cursor and you can place the patterns anywhere in your design.
- Click once to set the first anchor point, then move mouse to rotate design to desired position and click again.
Just like that you have one individual pattern on your design. Repeat as many times as you like as you can quickly get many pattern stamps created. This is a great tool to add interest to your design. For example you can take the heart pattern and stamp hearts at random around your design to add more detail. The heart is part of the Misc Pattern set.
Learn more about the pattern features in Bernina Embroidery Software during the Patterns in Designer Plus class on Saturday, July 11 at 10am. We’ll learn about outline and fill patterns, and how to adjust them to get the look you want. We’ll also learn how to create new patterns so your design possibilities are endless.
Isn’t that cool? I love our Bernina software, and I’m REALLY excited about V6, it looks incredible!
