PART I
THE BASICS
Designs created in BERNINA Embroidery Software are composed of
‘embroidery objects’. They are called ‘objects’ because they are discrete
entities which can be manipulated independently of each other. Each object
has certain defining characteristics or ‘properties’ such as color, size,
position, and so on. The most important property of an embroidery object
is its stitch type.
