In this section, we are going to create an embroidery pattern automatically. That pattern will be created
by automatic retracing of an image. This pattern will be used later as the stepping stone to creating a
more complex embroidery picture.
Please follow these instructions step by step, in the sequence given. If you have to interrupt your training
for any reason, it is recommended to save the file. You will be able to retrieve it later and resume your
work.
The complete procedure will take us through the different steps of a normal working session with Design
Center and will introduce you to its most important features.
