The machine will cut through multiple layers if you want to, or through a single layer, depending how you have designed it all in V8, and how much layers there are in the embroidery hoop. You can design machine embroidery using the regular presser foot (#26) and machine thread, in combination with the CutWork tools, replacing the needle and threads before cutting. There is no needle involved, but a very, very sharp knife and a special presser foot (#44C – since the last update, this presser foot is included with the ‘Select a Hoop’ option.).
CutWork is available via separate DesignWorks software, (I will work with this software more often this year), but is integrated in V8 too, which gives you the possibility to make your own embroidery designs with this built-in feature : a reduced version, for which you will need the Cutwork Tools plus the Straight- and CutWork stitch plate. This feature opened a new world of possibilities for me to work with special objects: making holes, cutting out shapes, using different fabrics and other materials and even cut patchwork for me, like hexagons. CutWork (and StumpWork) is an option in the BERNINA embroidery software V8, to cut shapes from fabrics/materials with a special presser foot.
