BERNINA SEWING MACHINE WORKBOOK
INTRODUCTION
Welcome! Learning to use your new machine to its fullest
capabilities will let you enjoy your machine for many years.
Understanding your machine’s features and learning its
navigation will maximize your creativity. While you will be
learning some basics, you’ll also be learning some creative
techniques, and we hope both will be inspirational.
Along with your machine's manual, this workbook is
designed to take you on a step by step journey into your
machine's capabilities. Once completed, the workbook can
serve as a technique reference guide.
Stitched samples can be attached to the pages or inserted
into sheet protectors, if desired. You will nd additional
resource materials in the back of this workbook.
While this may be the beginning of your educational journey,
there are other opportunities to grow creatively. BERNINA
of America strives to provide quality sewing and embroidery
machines while offering the best educational experience
possible. Along with providing My BERNINA Classes, your
local BERNINA dealer stocks BERNINA reference books,
such as the Big Book of Feet.
Instructional video tutorials are available on bernina.com
and the BERNINA YouTube channel. You will also nd
inspiring sewing projects on the BERNINA blog WeAllSew.
com. For more information about machines and accessories,

CLEANING AND OILING
Keeping your machine clean and well oiled will keep it running smoothly and is a crucial component for successful machine
stitching. Refer to Page 30 for cleaning tips. Your machine manual will also give you detailed cleaning and oiling suggestions.
STITCH PLATE
Attach the 5.5 mm Stitch Plate: Standard accessory for B 335, 325, 215
PRESSER FOOT
• Attach the shank with Reverse Pattern Sole #1 to the machine. (Refer to Page 25 Reference-BERNINA Presser Foot for
more information about BERNINA Presser Feet.)
RAISE FEED DOG
The feed dog will be raised when sewing.
INSERT AND THREAD NEEDLE (Refer to Page 26-27 Reference-Threads for additional information.)
• Use the proper needle for the thread and fabric being used. It is advisable to insert a new needle for each project, or after
every 8 hours of sewing time.
• Always thread with the presser foot up. This opens the tension discs and allows the thread to seat properly.
THREADING TIPS FOR MODELS WITH BOTH HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL SPOOL PINS:
• Use the horizontal spool pin with cross-wound threads; match spool cap size to end of spool.
• The smallest spool cap ts into the end of large cones/spools such as Isacord embroidery thread.
• Use the vertical spool pin with stacked threads and for some decorative threads (metallic threads); use the foam disc under
the spool to avoid extra tension on the thread.
PREPARING TO STITCH
THREAD THE BOBBIN FOR SEWING
• Generally, you will wind the bobbin with the same thread/thread weight that you will use in the needle.
• Open the bobbin cover and grasp the latch of the bobbin case. Remove the bobbin case.
• Insert the newly wound bobbin into the bobbin case so that the thread runs clockwise. Pull the thread counterclockwise
into the slot. Then pull the thread to the left under the spring until it lies in the T-shaped slit at the end of the spring. The
bobbin must turn clockwise.
• To insert the bobbin case, hold the bobbin case latch. The nger on the case should point upwards. Insert the case so that
it clicks into place. Pull the thread over cutter A and cut. Close the bobbin door. NOTE: The bobbin thread does not have to
be brought up as the loose end is the right length to start sewing if you have cut the thread with the cutter.
