Tula Pink and Sarah Vedeler designs included
BERNINA is taking Longarm Quilting another step forward with the new designs of Tula Pink and Sarah Vedeler. The famous designers clear the way for a new art form, which we affectionately call "quiltbroidery"; a mixture between quilting and embroidery. The results are beautiful, intricate and artistic designs that transform every quilt into an art piece.
To achieve the best possible results, we recommend that you
- Use a matching thread for Sarah Vedeler’s letter designs or even better a variegated matching thread.
- Keep the designs the same size. If you enlarge or reduce the design, sew out a test sample first.
- Quilt in the middle of the frame.
- Thread Break Recovery
- Sewhead Interaction
- EasyGlide
- Set Quilting Speed
- Customize Design Center
- Virtual Markers
- Create Vector Artwork
