Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

You’ve invested in a BERNINA – but are you making the most of everything it can do?

Those specialist feet are designed to open up a whole world of creative possibilities, yet all too often they remain tucked away in their boxes, waiting to be discovered.  This workshop is all about bringing those possibilities to the fore.

Join our creative quilter Linzi Upton for an inspiring, hands-on day exploring the potential of BERNINA Feet 16 and 86. With Linzi’s infectious enthusiasm and expert encouragement, you’ll discover how these clever accessories can help you produce imaginative pleats, gathers and ruffles – and inspire you to look at your BERNINA and its accessories with fresh eyes.

Explore, experiment & create

This isn’t simply a demonstration of what each foot does. Linzi will encourage you to play, experiment and explore, trying different techniques and seeing how changing fabrics, settings and approaches can produce wonderfully varied results.

It’s an opportunity to dust off those accessories you already own, discover what they’re capable of and get hands-on experience with specialist feet you may be considering adding to your collection.

Most importantly, you’ll leave with new ideas, greater confidence and plenty of inspiration for getting even more from your BERNINA investment.

When: Thursday 3 November

Where: Quilt Direct’s light and spacious studio, designed for comfort and creativity.
