Picture Stitch

• Heritage photo becomes an embroidery heirloom
  Embroider unique greeting cards, family quilts and framed portraits using photos from your family album. After scanning a photo on your computer or using a digital camera, with a few clicks you can turn pictures into attractive designs. Use Monochrome Mode for a single-color effect, or Color Mode to create a full-color embroidery with only four threads. The effect is amazing!
  
• Edit and add to your Picture
  Create perfect embroidery images with the picture retouching options. Adjust the contrast, brightness and sharpness to perfection, with a Preview window to show the changes. Crop and remove pieces from the picture, for example the background. Select any TrueType™ font on your computer and add text to your design, or embroider a rectangular or oval frame.
  
• Adjust your embroidery design
  Alter Scan Depth to change the amount of detail shown in the design. Thread Contrast allows you to change the range of shading within the embroidery for each color used. In Monochrome Mode, adjust density depending on the fabric and machine.
