Bernina's scalable embroidery designs are the most flexible in the embroidery
market. Bernina's stitch process engines add correct density in the majority of
sizes and positions. However, since there might be an occasion when a certain
percentage of scaling or rotation does not produce a 100% perfect recreation of
the design, it is a good idea to test-sew your edited size and/or position of the
design before you embroider your final product.
Rotating mirrored
motifs
A wonderful variety of
combinations are possible
together with the function
«Rotate Motif».
Combining designs
If mirrored and unmirrored
designs are combined,
particularly attractive effects and
borders can be designed.
For best results, the motifs
should be scaled within the
limits of 75% to 150%.
If the knob is turned slowly the
motif size can be altered
in 1% steps.
• in the Information Area the alteration is
displayed in percent (%)
• to reactivate the basic setting (100%) of
the motif touch the Information Area
