CLASSES CLUBS CAFES Needles, Threads & Maintenance This class, free with your SEWHut purchase of either a Bernina or Janome machine, will focus on which needles to use, the different sizes of threads, and combinations that work best.

BERNINA STITCH REGULATOR
How does the BSR work?
With the aid of technology, the BSR system reads (similar to a wireless mouse) the surface of the fabric under the presser foot. A sensor transfers information to the sewing machine as the material is moved. The sewing machine calculates the necessary sewing speed in order to sew consistent stitches according to the set stitch length.. A slower needle movement and motor speed is required if the material is moved slowly. A faster needle movement and motor speed is needed for faster fabric movement. The BSR, in tandem with the sewing machine, automatically adjusts to the sewer’s speed for even and consistent stitching. In this class we will share tips and tricks to successful free motion stitching. Experience your BERNINA Stitch Regulator hands on! We will also discuss the use of a variety of different threads and you will learn how to adjust tensions accordingly! SEW Hut 4226 Balboa Avenue, San Diego, CA 858-273-1377

How does the BSR work?
With the aid of technology, the BSR system reads (similar to a wireless mouse) the surface of the fabric under the presser foot. A sensor transfers information to the sewing machine as the material is moved. The sewing machine calculates the necessary sewing speed in order to sew consistent stitches according to the set stitch length.. A slower needle movement and motor speed is required if the material is moved slowly. A faster needle movement and motor speed is needed for faster fabric movement. The BSR, in tandem with the sewing machine, automatically adjusts to the sewer’s speed for even and consistent stitching. In this class we will share tips and tricks to successful free motion stitching. Experience your BERNINA Stitch Regulator hands on! We will also discuss the use of a variety of different threads and you will learn how to adjust tensions accordingly! SEW Hut 4226 Balboa Avenue, San Diego, CA 858-273-1377
