BERNINA V9 allows you to specify multiple hoopings manually or automatically for large designs. Manual hooping is generally better than automatic, except for simple designs. However, it does require greater understanding of both design and production processes.
Note When a large design requires multiple hoopings, it is important to establish the stitching order so that objects in the foreground are sewn after those in the background. This is normal practice for any design. See Combining & Sequencing Objects for details.
