BERNINA’s DesignWorks Software Suite is comprised of three components—CutWork, PaintWork, and CrystalWork—that turn any embroidery machine into a multimedia tool. With CutWork, shapes, patterns and designs can be cut from multiple layers of fabric. PaintWork allows the application of pen drawings to fabric and textiles. CrystalWork gives the ability to create crystal appliqué patterns for textiles and garments.
 
BERNINA Educator Tari Intardonato learned to sew in her early teens and has been sewing ever since. The BERNINA brand has always been a part of her life. Both her grandmothers sewed on BERNINA machines. Tari earned a bachelor’s degree in Vocational Home Economics and taught high school home economics in Oklahoma. She married and moved to the Dallas-Ft. Worth, Texas area, where she sold BERNINA products and taught classes in sewing techniques and operating BERNINA machines. She later managed a BERNINA Sewing Center in a local Hancock Fabrics and continued to teach classes in the BERNINA line, as well as sewing projects.
