    Image to EXP Embroidery File — Free Converter for Melco & Bernina

    Upload almost any image and download a ready-to-stitch EXP file for your Melco or Bernina machine — free and instant.

    SewFlow converts PNG, JPEG, SVG, BMP, GIF, WebP, and TIFF images into EXP embroidery files for Melco and Bernina machines. The converter detects colours, builds dense satin-stitch fills, and writes the EXP stitch stream automatically.

    How the Conversion Works

    • Colour detection groups your image into a small set of thread layers.
    • Each layer is filled with stitch paths at an embroidery-friendly density.
    • Layers are ordered and separated with colour-change stops.
    • The result is exported as a compact EXP stitch file.

    Simplify Before You Convert

    Photos with soft gradients or hundreds of colours don't translate to thread. Flatten to bold shapes and a few solid colours for the cleanest EXP result.
