BERNINA /bernette Sewing Machines ® ® Mastering Your BERNINA® Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of a BERNINA® or bernette® for BERNINA® sewing machine! This workbook is designed to be used in conjunction with the Owners Classes you will take at your BERNINA® dealership, and contains a series of exercises intended to familiarize you with the features of your new BERNINA® or bernette® sewing machine.
PAGE 5
Mastering Your BERNINA® BERNINA /bernette Sewing Machines ® ® Meet Your Feet BERNIN A® Presser Feet: BERNINA • are precision engineered for specific functions • are Swiss-made for the highest quality • are one-piece metal feet, making them sturdy and durable • are easy to change with one hand, requiring no special tools • have a white shank, making it easier to see the eye of the needle, resulting in easier threading • are, in some cases, modeled after commercial feet used in factories to increase speed
PAGE 6
BERNINA /bernette Sewing Machines ® ® Mastering Your BERNINA® Sewing Machine Needles Along with thread, needles are very important to stitch formation. Many “mechanical” problems and damage to fabrics can be traced to a bent, damaged, or incorrect size or type needle. Approximately 60% of all needles are discarded at some stage of production.
PAGE 7
BERNINA /bernette Sewing Machines ® ® Sewing Machine Needles Ball Point 60-100 Has a rounded point. 70 for lingerie, nylon, jersey; 80 for T-shirt; 90 for sweatshirt fleece. Stretch Stretch Double 70-90 2.5/75 3.0/75 A stretch needle has a more rounded point than a Ball Point, and a blue anti-cling coating which helps to prevent skipped stitches in knits and elastic. Sometimes used on Ultrasuede®, vinyl, and plastic. Two ballpoint needles on one shank; each needle has a large scarf.
PAGE 8
BERNINA /bernette Sewing Machines ® ® Mastering Your BERNINA® Thread Poor quality or the wrong type of thread can cause poor stitches on any machine. Thread passes through the eye of the needle approximately 37 times in a “seesaw” action before it forms a single stitch. Poor quality thread results in crooked and looped stitches, puckered seams, frayed thread, and/or needle breakage.
PAGE 9
BERNINA /bernette Sewing Machines ® ® Mastering Your BERNINA® Thread Wearable art embellishment has necessitated the creation and marketing of many new thread types, such as rayons and metallics. Threads made in West Germany are left twist threads; Mettler and Isacord threads are also left twist. To test the twist of a thread: while holding the spool in the left hand, roll the strand of thread towards you with one thumb. Left twist will tighten, right twist will loosen.
PAGE 10
BERNINA /bernette Sewing Machines ® ® Mastering Your BERNINA® Stabilizers & Interfacings Tear-Away Stabilizer: The most commonly used type of stabilizer, designed to provide temporary support of stitching. Placed on the wrong side of the project and carefully pulled away once stitching is complete. Available in three weights – heavy, medium, and light. Multiple lightweight layers may be preferable to one heavy layer, as they are easier to remove.
PAGE 11
BERNINA /bernette Sewing Machines ® ® Mastering Your BERNINA® Stabilizers & Interfacings Liquid/Spray Stabilizers: Wonderful for sheer fabrics from which all stabilizer must be removed after stitching, these products are painted or sprayed onto the fabric. Several light applications of spray stabilizer are preferable to one heavy application.
