I created an embroidery design for my part in Bernina’s Advent Calendar.
You can download the embroidery design for free from my post for the advent calendar here: Advent Calendar 2022 ‒ the 19th door
I wanted to share with you how I created the embroidery design with Bernina’s Embroidery Software 9 and Corel Draw so that you can create your own.
What will be needed:
- Bernina Embroidery Software 9
- Artwork/image
Digitize
I created this artwork by drawing lines over a picture of my plant. This can be achieved in Corel Draw by using the Freehand, Pen or 2 Point Line Tool.
- Insert artwork.
- Select the hoop you will be using.
Right click on the Show Hoop to see the settings and choose a hoop.
I am using the Large Embroidery Hoop so I select that one.
- Resize the artwork to fit within the hoop/fit the item you are going to embroider.
Auto Digitize
- Select the Artwork and click on the Auto-digitize tool.
- Choose what colours to omit.
I didn’t want the white background to be converted to embroidery so I omitted it.
Select Centerline under the Stitch Details Tab.
- Delete the artwork and reshape the digitized object or edit its properties if necessary.
Finishing Off
- Save, export or send to your Bernina machine via the WiFi Device.
I would love to see what you make, please feel free to share with me!

Do you think that this can be achieved in a creator version or do I need this software.
Hi Melinda 🙂
It’s my understanding that BERNINA Embroidery Software 9 Creator has the Auto Digitizing Tool so you can convert a graphic in to embroidery like I did.
However it does not have CorelDraw (which comes with the DesignerPlus version) which is what I used to create the line drawing.
You could import a picture or scan a drawing in to the embroidery software.
Hope that helps 😉
Your tutorials a wonderful! Can’t wait to try this. It is great having these for the embroidery module. Thank you!
Thank you so much 🙂 I’m glad that you are enjoying them.
