All regular width quilting fabrics are approx. 112cm (44") in width, and 100% cotton.
All wide backing fabrics are 275cm (108") in width, and 100% cotton.
Our minimum cut for all fabrics is 25cm.
With the Bernina Darning foot # 9, small holes and tears in fabrics practically repair themselves.
The hopper mechanism combined with the vertical spring presses the foot firmly to the project, preventing the material from pulling up withthe needle during sewing (flagging) and ensuring a neat stitch pattern.
The special shape of the Bernina Darning foot # 9 also makes it ideal for free-hand embroidery, quilting, and creating attractive lace and monograms. Because of the circular sole, Bernina Darning foot #9 is also great for echo quilting. No matter which direction you are sewing, the lines remain approximately 1/4" apart.
If you need help deciding which foot is suitable for your machine please enquire above.
