The Bernina sewing machines of today have come a long way from the very first sewing machine introduced by the company in 1790, which was crafted out of wood for shoemakers. Today’s machines are not just sewing machines; they state of the art sewing and embroidery systems.

Boasting sales of over six million machines since its founding, Bernina has been at the forefront of several major breakthroughs in sewing machine technology.  With an impressive range of models under their belt, each of them offering a different variety of features, no single Bernina sewing machine wholly represents the entire range that the company offers.  If you are looking for a Bernina, you will need to first assess your needs and determine exactly what you are looking for in your machine for so that you can narrow down your choices. Aah! The pleasure and pain of having so many options to choose from.
