BERNINA Overlocker

Their absolute speciality is finishing edges of all kinds. They create professional, robust seams and hems in high-stretch materials. Rolled hems and decorative flatlock seams are a breeze, and functions such as differential feed and Micro Thread Control (mtc) enable you to sew immaculate stitches with any combination of thread and fabric. It is also possible to create gathering and ruffles, and there are endless design possibilities using decorative threads.

Do you want to trim and neaten the edge of the fabric while creating professional seams and hems, all in one process? What sounds too good to be true becomes a reality with an overlocker. Whatever you sew, you‘ll complete your projects quicker than ever before and what‘s more, your sewing will look more professional – inside and out.

There are lots of reasons to get an Overlocker:

  • Professional neatening of fabric edges
  • Superb results quickly and easily
  • Ideal for knitted, stretch and woven fabrics
  • Perfect for delicate silk or satin fabrics
  • Can also sew heavy linen, fleece and denim fabrics
  • Differential feed for pucker-free seams or for gathering

BERNINA L 8 Series

ONE-STEP BERNINA AIR THREADER

The exclusive One-step BERNINA Air Threader makes threading the loopers incredibly easy. The threads are magically moved through the machine via one simple step on the foot control. So both hands remain free. The machine automatically sets the loopers in the correct position for the air threader – no turning the handwheel or searching for the right position. Simply press the foot control and you‘re off.

GRAND SEWING SPACE

The space offered on the L 8 Series machines is generous by any definition. You get more room to the right of the needles and more workspace height than ever before on a BERNINA overlocker. The practical freearm is an advantage when sewing closed textiles, because you can easily slide sleeves or cuffs over it.

CONVENIENT AND EASY TO USE

The L 8 Series overlockers offer a range of convenient features to help you sew to the highest standard: pressing the foot control with your heel raises or lowers the needle by a half stitch, making handling easier. The BERNINA Free Hand System (FHS) lets you raise and lower the presser foot with your knee – great for sewing corners. And the presser foot can be swung out to the side for easier access to the needles.

THE BERNINA ADVANTAGE

If you’re a proud owner of a BERNINA sewing machine, then you’ll be delighted with the BERNINA L 8 Series because it’s packed with the many functions and BERNINA benefits you already know and love. Don’t own a BERNINA? Well you’re in for a treat! Once you experience the BERNINA Overlocker or overlock / coverstitch combo, you won’t want anything else.
