Hi Marabelle, what a lovely Bernina you have❤ Nice to see the younger generation embracing the older style Berninas❤ I have a Bernina 1030 myself. I wanted to point out that the foot that you call your zipper foot is actually your overlocking foot. And the narrow foot with two holes on the sides, where you say you don't know what these feet are for, is actually your zipper foot👍🏻
Hi Marabelle. I like the way that you presented your information on your Bernina sewing machine. The back-story with regard to how the machine came to you was interesting and the work you required to have done, with assistance from your Dad. Also, what you have done yourself, to return it to fully operational and functional order. At age 73, because of physical limitations due to nerve damage in my back, I have just purchased a Bernina 1130. While looking around for information on maintenance and repair details for the machine, I came across your video. Over the next few weeks and months, I will be doing exploratory searches, experimental work and practice on the machine, since I have never used a sewing machine before. It is a process and exercise to which I am looking forward. Thanks for your directions, given clearly and with good diction, on how you maintain your machine and the description of some functions of the machine. Best Wishes, Peter 🇦🇺
You really can’t beat the older BERNINA 807 minimatic, 810, 830 record, 930 and the 1008. They are true workhorses and really are durable with fantastic stitch quality. These full metal bodied machines are so much more reliable than any new plastic computerised machines. If you can get one online I would definitely recommend sourcing a reputable Bernina service Shop, to give the machines a service and make sure the electrics are safe, they are worth the service cost and would recommend learning how to maintain them properly just like Marabelle shows. here Thank you so much for sharing your love of the vintage BERNINA’s and showing how to maintain them
If you are looking for amazing Bernina service centre in the UK you can not get any better than Bamber Sewing Machines. I’ve been using them for well over 20 years and they are always super competitive price wise and their service is excellent. Such a great family run business that will always go the extra mile (quite literally) to make sure their customers machines are stitching perfectly. If you are looking for an older Bernina, they also have refurbished machines for sale too. They also run classes so they can teach you have everything works on that machine to make sure you get the full use out of it.
Thanks for all your lubricaing tips - very useful - Liz
