Patchwork and quilting sewing machines

For easier machine quilting, one of the most important requirements of the machine is a large working area under the freearm. This is true whether using it on the table or on a machine quilting frame like the Little Gracie II.

The Pfaff GrandQuilter (Grand Quilter) has this larger working area plus a host of features to make machine quilting a real pleasure!

 

No other machine sews faster!

An amazing 1,600 stitches per minute makes it easy to stitch large quilts and other long pieces of fabric like draperies and home dec. projects.
 

Perfect seams every time!

The automatic stitch control guarantees perfectly adjusted stitches no matter how thick the fabric.

At the touch of a button, leave the needle in the fabric for pivoting and material handling.

Keeps stitches even and exact on every fabric, thanks to the pre-tension adjustment.

Easy adjustment assures the correct foot pressure for every fabric.

The generous 60 x 40cm (24" x 16") work surface (shown above) is perfect for sewing and handling large fabrics and it’s ideal for free-motion quilting

Special sewing features

A working area of 22.5 x 15cm (9" x 6").

Raise and lower the presser foot with the knee lift, leaving your hands free to guide your project.

Both the upper and bobbin threads are cut with the touch of a button.

No more searching for the needle’s eye - let the needle threader do the work!

A separate motor lets you wind the bobbin while continuing to sew. Winding stops automatically when the bobbin is full.

Large reverse lever can be activated with your elbow, leaving your hands free to guide the fabric.

The Frame Option

Alternatively you may wish to use the Pfaff GrandQuilter with a Quilting Frame. The Pfaff GrandQuilter can easily be used in conjunction with one of our metal or wooden Grace Machine Quilting Frames

Most Space

Room for great new sewing ideas! The 820 offers substantially more space than a standard sewing machine. The approx. 400-mm (15-inch) extended arm and over 300 mm (12 inches) to the right of the needle provide ample space for your projects, allowing for easy spreading out and manoeuvring the fabrics

Fastest Speeds

Top speeds with excellent sewing results and perfect stitch formation! The BERNINA 820 delivers up to 1,100 stitches per minute in sewing mode, consistently guaranteeing fast speeds, even with wider stitches.

Jumbo Bobbin

Thanks to a substantially larger bobbin, the BERNINA 820 offers 40% more thread capacity, thereby reducing your set-up time and leaving you more time for the creative side of things. What’s more, the jumbo bobbin is easy to use: When the hinged lid is opened, the hook swings out and the bobbin pops out at the touch of a finger.

Total Stitch Control

A BERNINA exclusive: Each stitch pattern can be customised and saved! The BERNINA Stitch Regulator (BSR) ensures total control in your creative endeavours. The revolutionary BSR System makes free-motion sewing a cinch and a sure-fire success. Your stitches remain consistent, whether you sew fast or slow.

Centred Screen

Ideal ergonomics! The touchscreen is centrally located, so that both the needle area and the screen with the settings can be viewed completely in one quick glance. Large on-screen icons enable quick navigation, and the highly responsive screen makes for particularly user-friendly operation.

The 5-inch TFT screen offers high-resolution images and bright colours from all viewing angles.

BERNINA Dual Feed

Reliable feed of hard-to-handle materials! Working with knits, velvet, ribbon or multiple layers? The BERNINA 820’s built-in Dual Feed can be activated when needed, to feed the fabric from both above and below. The Dual Feed System offers optimum visibility and superb manoeuvrability. Simply flip up and tuck away when no longer required.

Automatic Threading

Simple threading, automatically! The BERNINA 820 boasts a unique system for threading the machine and the needle, in a single operation.

Because it’s done quickly and automatically, it leaves you more time to focus on the fun side of sewing. 

Superb Thread-Supply System

The exclusive multi-spool holder accommodates large, medium and small cones and keeps them at the ready. The thread supply system with ist built-in telescopic rod ensures ideal thread supply and smooth, even thread release when sewing. The bobbin winder is located on the front of the BERNINA 820 for ease of access, and even lets you select speed and amount of fill.
