The hallmark of excellence in free-motion work is the ability to keep the stitch length even and consistent as the fabric is guided without the help of the feed dogs.  The Bernina Stitch Regulator eliminates the difficult task of managing the fabric movement, giving excellent results even for beginners to free-motion techniques. For more experienced free-motion stitchers, the BSR  provides the confidence to try more challenging free-motion techniques. You can concentrate exclusively on your creativity, sewing both straight and zigzag free-motion stitches on all fabrics.

The Bernina 735 is available with a saving of £200 plus a free Bernina Stitch Regulator worth £675 until 30th April 2024.
