Working with fabrics

Embroidery stitches pull fabric inward where the needle penetrates. This can cause fabric to pucker, and gaps to appear in the embroidery. For an object to sew out correctly, it must have correct stitch spacing, sufficient pull compensation together with a suitable underlay for the combination of cover stitch type, object type, object shape and fabric. BERNINA V9 provides a set of customized fabric settings so that the software will take into account the type of fabric you are stitching on.

Fabrics are a critical element of designs and are controlled separately from template values. Fabric settings are fewer in number than those contained in templates. Templates set global values for designs but each design requires its own fabric settings which are saved with the design.
