When I clicked OK this time, I got the following: With the lacework-filled heart object still selected and the dialog box still opened, I clicked on the Effects button at the bottom of the dialog box and checked in the box for the Wave Fill. Now, since a heart combines some of the most beautiful curves geometry can create, I wanted to have the lacework fill echo the curvature of the main shape. This implemented the change while keeping my dialog box open. Note: I wasn’t done yet with the heart, so I didn’t click on OK. I then adjusted the fill of the duplicate design to make it a tad smaller, to give it a bit more density and texture (with a 3 mm grid size), as you can see below:.Change the duplicate to a lacework fill.Duplicate the heart (the duplicate heart will be selected automatically).With the outline heart selected, all I had to do was: This outline would serve as my basting line once I stitch out the embroidery on a luggage tag. I now had a heart embroidery motif, composed of a single stitch outline. The beauty of the BERNINA Embroidery Software 8 is that once an outline is created graphically (in Artwork Canvas), it can easily be converted to a line of stitching, just by clicking on the Convert button at the top of the Artwork Canvas screen, which became active once the heart outline shape was created…and selected.Īfter I clicked on the Convert button, the software automatically transferred over to the Embroidery Canvas. This resulted in a thin outline like this: I dragged the mouse to enlarge the heart until it was about 50 mm (2 inches) in size, and then released the mouse button. TIP: Hold the CTRL key while dragging the mouse to force a proportional aspect ratio so that your heart will be balanced in shape. The size of the shape (heart) is shown at the top of the screen.
