SVG to SEW — built for embroiderers

Zero signup required

Janome, New Home compatible

Every output is validated against Janome SEW spec for maximum compatibility with Janome, New Home machines.

Transparency preserved

Alpha-channel data in your SVG is used as a no-stitch boundary, so transparent areas stay clean in the final embroidery.

Underlay & pull compensation

Our AI engine adds underlay stitches and pull compensation automatically, reducing puckering and improving fabric stability on all stitch types.

Industrial stitch density

Stitch density, satin column width, and fill angles are optimized for professional SEW output — no manual parameter tuning needed.

Private & secure

Uploaded files are processed in an isolated sandbox and permanently deleted after conversion. We never store or share your artwork.

What is the .SEW format?

The Janome SEW format is a widely supported Janome format compatible with most Janome and New Home machines, ideal for home and semi-professional projects. It stores color data embedded per segment, and is natively read by Janome, New Home machines.

When you convert a SVG image to SEW, every stitch path, fill area, and satin column is encoded in the Janome SEW specification — ready to load directly onto your machine with no additional software.

Tips for better SVGSEW results

  • Use clean vector paths — avoid rasterized SVG elements
  • Transparent areas will become no-stitch zones — use them to shape your design
  • Limit colors to 6–12 for cleaner thread separation
  • Simple, bold shapes produce better stitch quality than fine gradients
  • For best results on Janome, New Home machines, test at 100 % zoom in your machine software before production
