Bernette Academy 05 Sewing Machine Review
What does the perfect heavy duty sewing machine on a budget look like?
It looks like the Bernette 05 Academy Sewing Machine! This machine is well-built, sturdy, and sews through 8 layers of denim with ease.
The fast motor of the Bernette 05 Academy Sewing Machine allows you to sew up to 1,100 stitches per minute! But, don’t worry if you’re still brand new to sewing or need to sew something more delicate. This sewing machine has a feature that allows you to make sure you’re only going about half of the top speed at just over 600 stitches per minute. This is perfect for beginners since we don’t always have the confidence to sew at top speeds, but are also getting used to using a foot pedal.
The Bernette 05 Academy Sewing Machine comes with 30 exclusive stitches, most of them utility stitches that are essential to creating sturdy and beautiful garments. One of those stitches is an automatic 1-step buttonhole stitch. When learning to sew or learning about new techniques, having the basics and essentials will help you to learn the mechanics of sewing and make sure that you can use any sewing machine going forward.
Everyone who uses this machine loves how much working space they’ll have! This sewing machine has 6 inches of workspace to the right of the needle. That’s enough space to work on quilts of many different sizes and any garments or home décor projects you want to create.
And that working space is made even larger with the large extension table that’s included with the 05 Academy sewing machine. Extension tables make it easier for you to sew heavy fabrics like denim or hold up thick layers of a skirt to the needle so that your seams aren’t wonky or strained. Instead, it levels your working space to the height of your needle so that the heavy layers aren’t being pulled away from the needle by that inevitable force called gravity. Once you use an extension table, you won’t want to go back to not having one! Many sewists leave their extension tables always attached to their sewing machine. It expands your available space to work with your fabric.
