Bernette Binder Attachment Pre-Fold b37/b38

Bernette Binder Attachment for b37/b38

The Bernette Binder Attachment binds edges with pre-folded or unfolded bias tape in a finished width of 5 to 7mm, sewn with a utility or decorative stitch.

It works with pre-folded bias binding 10-14mm wide or non-pre-folded binding 23mm wide, on a Bernette sewing machine. Fits Bernette b37 and b38.

How to use it

Switch off the machine and attach the foot as described in the instruction manual. Use a straight stitch, or a narrow zigzag as an alternative, with a stitch length of 2 - 2.5 mm or as required, needle position centre and the feed dog raised. Cut the bias binding diagonally at the start, insert it into the guide of the binder, and if necessary push it through the hole with a needle or a pair of small scissors. Guide the binding backwards under the foot, then insert the edge of the fabric to be bound into the guide between the binding. The needle position or the position of the guide channel can be adjusted by loosening the screw, so the binding is sewn on close to the edge. Quilted fabrics or several layers should first be basted or neatened together before binding. If you use zigzag instead, set the position so that the needle pierces the fabric just next to the binding on its left swing.
