Powerful Tools to Customize your Embroidery

Embrilliance Enthusiast puts powerful tools for manipulating designs at your fingertips!

Multiple Hooping

When you want a design too big for your machine, we’ve got your back.

Embrilliance Enthusiast automatically splits embroidery designs into multiple designs which tile together. Our splitting drastically reduces visible ‘seams’ that occur from manually splitting files. In most cases, the final product is indistinguishable from one created on a larger-field machine.

Multi-position hoops allow you to hoop the fabric once and generate the design by sewing it in multiple sections. However, you can achieve the same by re-hooping multiple times. We call this a “Virtual Hoop” & Enthusiast comes with many hoops and virtual hoops defined.

Aligning multiple sections is accomplished automatically with multi-position hoops, but to make it easier for regular hoops, Enthusiast adds basting stitches!

The Mega Hoop, Plus Hoop, Jumbo Hoop, Dream Hoop, Hoop-It-All, and others are pre-loaded. You can even use regular hoops in a side-by-side arrangement so your sewing field is now wide as it is tall.

Baste Hoop

With Essentials, individually selected embroidery designs can have a basting stitch added automatically. This is useful when you want to add a layer of stabilizer or some other material before the sewing of a design.

With Enthusiast, a basting stitch can be added to the hoop, which allows for a layer of topping stabilizer to be basted in place before any designs are sewn. A typical use of this is to add a layer of water-soluble topping to a towel, which will prevent the terry cloth loops from coming up through the embroidery. It can be hard to hoop a towel, and the topping stabilizer will want to slide around before the stitching happens, so basting it first can make the process easier.

Advanced Thread editor

Beyond the Essentials palette creator, the Embrilliance Enthusiast editor lets you make your own embroidery thread brand charts and even pick colors directly from web pages or PDFs.

The color grabber tool will let you click in any window and pick up whatever color is under the cursor. This is very useful when you are building a thread palette from a document such as a .pdf or a thread manufacturer’s webpage. If you want to adjust the color visually, use the HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) sliders until you get a color that you like.

Knockdown Stitches

The incredibly useful knockdown stitch tool has been included as an exclusive tool in Enthusiast!

When sewing on terry or any fabric with loops and nap, generally a topping stabilizer is used. These can be helpful, but have a limitation: They do not hold down the nap after the design is stitched and the item is watched, which means outlines can be lost in the surrounding fabric. Using Knockdown Stitches you can create a global underlay for the entire design. The underlay extends a few millimeters past the edge of the design, which helps the overall effect.

Mirroring, Repeats, and Scatter

Set up corner designs to repeat automatically and place them in the extreme corners of your embroidery hoop instantly, or set up a design to repeat with perfect spacing in rows and columns. Scatter reproduces, rotates, and scales your design for a whimsical arrangement!

Carousel Features

Arrange designs in a circle with set spacing repeats and oval shaping! Create design arrangements in the round easily!
