Sewing can be that easy!

Thread cutter

Easy cutting of threads when
removing the sewing project from the
machine. Upper and lower threads
are safely secured without interlooping
until the next time you sew.

Stitch selection

The stitch selection chart tells you which
presser foot, needle position and stitch
length and width best suit the selected
stitch.

Bobbin winder

For even winding of the bobbins. The
winding stops automatically when
the bobbin is full and the thread can
be cut ‚on site‘.

Stitch width and needle position

Simply use the appropriate dials to
infinitely adjust stitch width between
1 and 5 mm and to choose from 3
needle positions.

Presser feet

The BERNINA 1008 model comes with the
robust, high-quality BERNINA presser foot
no. 1. The standard package also includes
a shaft and the most frequently used
presser foot soles.

Free-arm

The especially slim free-arm enables easy
and flawless sewing of tubular items such
as children‘s clothing, sleeves, cuffs, collars
and trouser hems.

Feed-dog drop

Some sewing tasks – darning, for instance –
do not require automatic feeding. Turn the
setting wheel to lower the feed-dog.
The fabric can then be freely guided and
fed under needle exactly as you wish.

Buttonhole

Sewing standard buttonholes in six steps
couldn’t be easier. Add gimp for corded
buttonholes to give them an especially rai­sed look.

Stitch length

Infinitely adjustable stitch length. Use the
setting wheel to adjust the stitch length as
wished – any length from 0 to 5mm.
