New to BERNINA’s V9 Creator or DesignerPlus software? Or maybe it’s been a while since you’ve opened it and you’d like a friendly refresher? This class is the perfect place to start (or re-start!) your journey into the creative world of machine embroidery design.

We'll take things step-by-step and at a relaxed pace, covering the basics of how to navigate the software, understand its key features, and get comfortable with the tools available in both Creator and DesignerPlus. Whether you’re hoping to design your own embroidery from scratch or simply want to feel more confident using the software, this class will help you stitch with ease and enjoyment.

You'll learn how to:

  • Navigate the V9 workspace and tools

  • Open and edit existing embroidery designs

  • Explore basic lettering, shapes, and stitch types

  • Understand the difference between Creator and DesignerPlus features

  • Prepare your designs for stitching out on your embroidery machine

No experience is needed—just bring your curiosity and your laptop (with the software installed and activated. We’ll walk through it together, one click at a time!

Come join us and get your creative threads untangled—we promise this class will leave you feeling sew confident!

  • This class is highly recommended before coming to the monthly Software Technique of the Month - Software Skill Builder Class.

  • Remember to bring your laptop with the software fully installed.  Test ALL software functions, not just opening the program. Don't forget your mouse, mouse pad, and computer power cord.

  • Action Required: You must open and fully test your software at home before arriving to class. This is critical because software support will not be available in the classroom, and there is no time in class to install or update the software.

  • Any technical difficulties with software installation or functionality need to be resolved in advance.

  • Taking the time now to verify everything works properly will save you frustration later and help us dive straight into the exciting curriculum we have planned.

  • Bring a notepad and pen/pencil.

  • No Embroidery Machine is required for this class.
