I watched a webinar that Bernina made highlighting the 830 machine. The project featured a drawstring bag embellished with cutwork embroidery designs. I didn't have those designs, but I did have others. I also used a lace design and added cutwork to that as well.
The designs stitched during the webinar were manually cut out. I decided to use the software for Cutwork that Bernina released last year. It is so easy to use and the machine cut beautifully. The first design I stitched did not cut out as well as I liked but once I changed the cut fabric to velour, voila!!!
I also tried my hand at digitising my own cutwork from an illustration. Unfortunately, my photography is still not too good and it was over exposed - lots. Any way the photos will give you some ideas on how easy this software is to use.

| This design was originally a fsl lace design. I digitised the outline for the star and then the centre circle applique. |

Hi, the pattern came from a webinar on the Berninausa site. I have just done a search of that site and was unable to find it - you might have better luck, but it was some time ago. I am glad you like the project, basically it is two circles, embroidered using 8 points to create the pockets, the outer circle about 2" larger than the smaller to allow for the draw string handles.
