Total Creative Control
Embroidery Editing
Take complete creative control with the advanced embroidery editing functions built into the machine. On the full-color touchscreen, you can resize, combine, duplicate, flip, arc, group, and drag & drop designs with ease, giving you endless flexibility to create custom layouts. The zoom and trace features enable you to preview your placement with pinpoint accuracy, while user color choice allows you to experiment with different thread palettes before stitching. For added precision, flexible stitch traveling by units of 1, 10, or 100 makes it simple to move through your design, whether you're fine-tuning or making quick adjustments. And if a thread breaks mid-design, the machine's auto return function ensures you can pick up right where you left off without missing a single detail. These intuitive editing tools make it easy to achieve professional-quality embroidery that reflects your unique vision.
