Overview
BERNINA 770 QEE – Enjoy sewing, quilting and endless possibilities
BERNINA 770 QEE - A lot of space for big art work
For American quilt artist Tula Pink, the BERNINA 770 QEE is something very special: "Next to my passion for my designs, I’m equally passionate about BERNINA. The BERNINA 770 QEE gives me the space I need for quilting, plus the Stitch Regulator can’t be beat for even stitches." Tula Pink plays with images the way a poet plays with words, turning innocuous traditional designs into mischievous little critters. Tula’s love affair with textiles began early and an obsession with sewing soon followed. Tula began quilting in an effort to use up her ever-growing stash of fabric so that she could justify buying more. Today, 16 years later, she is a renowned designer and quilter. Tula Pink has designed a quilt from her "Moonshine" fabric collection exclusively for BERNINA.
The BERNINA Hook
The heart of the BERNINA 7 Series features a novel,centrally placed driver, which allows the BERNINA Hook to run fast yet quietly. The BERNINA Hook sews high-precision stitches up to 9 mm in width with speeds up to 1,000 stitches per minute. The bobbin holds up to 70% more thread than standard bobbins allowing you to sew longer without interruption.
Extended Freearm for Grand Ideas
The BERNINA 7 Series includes a meticulously engineered extended freearm with 10 inches of space to the right of the needle. The BERNINA 770 QEE not only provides plenty of space for large, beautiful sewing and quilting projects - with its stitch width of 9 mm, it is also ideally suited for sewing decorative stitches. The extra-large embroidery module lets you stitch out maxi-sized motifs. And should your ambitions grow, the BERNINA 770 QEE can be updated with a wealth of accessories.
Total Stitch Control
All BERNINA 7 Series models provide an exclusive level of stitch control. Whether altering stitch length, stitch width or needle position, the machine will remember the stitch details for you. Your personal settings can be saved and retrieved at will. And the USB interface allows you to import and export stitches and stitch patterns or combinations.
BERNINA Adaptive Thread Tension
The BERNINA Adaptive Thread Tension, a BERNINA innovation, provides ideal thread tension for each and every stitch type, in any variation. The tension is electronically adjusted to the selected stitch width, length, speed, and needle position on each penetration of the needle into the fabric. The result is the finest stitching without pressing a button.
The BERNINA Stitch Regulator (BSR)
The BERNINA 770 QEE is equipped with the BSR function. The BSR foot assists you with free-motion sewing and quilting with a straight or zigzag stitch, ensuring stitches of the exact same length even at variable sewing speeds. It comes standard with the machine.
BERNINA Patchwork foot 97D included
The BERNINA 770 QEE also includes the Patchwork foot 97D with movable guide rail. For patchworking, it provides extra reliability for when joining together the patchwork pieces. When used in conjunction with the straight stitch needle place, it enables you to achieve a perfect stitch result.
BERNINA Dual Feed
The innovative BERNINA Dual Feed tames hard-to-manage fabrics providing superb fabric feed and optimum visibility while sewing. Easy to engage when needed, the BERNINA Dual Feed tucks completely out of the way when it’s not.
Sew with Even Greater Ease
The BERNINA 770 QEE accomplishes many tasks all by itself. The presser foot lowers automatically at the beginning of a seam. Threading is semi-automatic, and the thread is cut automatically when you reach the end of a seam, or when you wish to change colors while embroidering. Moreover, a practical extension table, which yet again significantly increases your work area, is included in the standard package.
New user interface
User-friendly features and intuitive navigation: the Sewing Consultant and built-in tutorials offer direct onscreen support and answers to your questions at any time, day or night.
Total Embroidery Stitch Control
- Thread Away Mode: Pulls the threads down to the underside for clean embroidery results on the top. Program jump stitch length to manage thread cuts. Subject to design properties. No more manual trimming on the top side needed.
