New Premier+(TM) Embroidery System -- Software for Today's Most Imaginative, Tech-Savvy Embroiderers -- Unveiled

HAMILTON, BERMUDA--(Marketwired - Sep 15, 2015) - The creators of HUSQVARNA VIKING^® and PFAFF^® embroidery software, unveiled the Premier+™ Embroidery System with three levels of embroidery software: Premier+™ Ultra software, Premier+™ Extra software, and Premier+™ Embroidery software. All versions of the new software can be used with computers operating Windows^® 10, 8 and 7, and they are compatible with most embroidery machine brands.

The new Premier+™ Embroidery System software is from the creators of the 6D™ Embroidery System software. It allows embroiderers to personalize projects with the most advanced technology. Specifically, embroiderers can integrate and share photos directly from social media accounts including Facebook^®, Flickr^®, Twitter^® and YouTube^®; and view their finished projects from a realistic, three-dimensional perspective including visualizing appliqué fabrics; and save projects in multiple formats (including .VP4 format) in order to pause and easily pick up where they left off.

"Today's embroiderers are highly imaginative and have a passion for creating personalized, one-of-a-kind designs," said Nikolaus Woehrle, Senior Vice President of Product Development at SVP Worldwide, source of the SINGER^®, HUSQVARNA VIKING^® and PFAFF^® sewing machine brands. "The Premier+™ Embroidery System software gives them the capacity and features to make their most creative, innovative ideas come to life."

The Premier+™ Embroidery System software offers hundreds of new fonts, fills, effects and SuperDesigns; and it boasts an improved satin stitch flow with Multigradient and Multicolor Satin fonts that feature colors changing before your eyes. More software benefits include:

• New .VP4 format: With this new file format, embroiderers can:
  • Show and store appliqué fabric, beads and crystals, puffy foam and twin needles in embroideries;
  • Create appliqué cutter lines automatically;
  • Edit lettering parameters after saving and reloading files, and change the font or properties;
  • Store project backgrounds and hoop information in your embroidery file; and
  • Group subdesigns and retain the ability to edit later.
• 3D View and Life View: Rotate, angle and view what your finished project will look like from a realistic, three-dimensional perspective. This includes the capacity for a real-world view of special embroidery techniques using puffy foam, glow-in-the dark threads and other unusual materials.
• Extensive Lettering: Personalize your projects with monograms and an array of specialty fonts from satin fonts to wing needle fonts and curved crosshatch fills that provide intersecting patterns for three-dimensional effects. 
• Thread Inventory: Use the Thread Cache website to inventory your thread on your mobile phone or tablet before beginning an embroidery project, ensuring you have the supplies you need; and then print and view a shopping list.
• Design creation power: Transform clipart, logos or photos into embroideries with your choice of fill patterns and special techniques. You can even create a heritage embroidery chart from your own family history.
