From the earliest times, the man has used embroidery to add cultural and economic value or to personalize the clothes and the result was a rich heritage of embellishment. Today the design of embroidered textiles is aligned to the advanced technologies, according to what is fashionable or on-trend. Digital imaging is now a part of the textile design process and many fashion designers use the CAD in order to increase the precision, productivity and to offer organized information, but also to reduce lead times in production, thus reducing cost of garments.
This paper will show how a textile design can be created by the means of the universal CAD system ASCON Kompas (we designed the shape of Sacred Geometry's symbol "Flower of Life") and Adobe Photoshop (for the colour combination). Later on we imported the designs in Hatch Embroidery Software, in order to create the embroidery models. Using Adobe Illustrator, we drawn some graphic sketches of garments and on those we added the embroideries which we already designed.
The software which we used offered us the benefit of experimenting with a number of colours, textures, patterns and sketch backgrounds for producing a playful, distinct and animated design, without physically making a garment.
