The Creative Designer comes as standard equip ment with the Creative 7570 and enables you to design your own patterns up to a width of 9 mm. The desired motif is drawn on a programming sheet. This template is inserted in the Creative Designer and transferred into the sewing ma chine’s memory by a cross-wire magnifier stitch by stitch.
