Bernina embroidery machines

Bernina is a Swiss maker whose sewing and embroidery machines are sold through dealers, usually with classes and service. Bernina embroidery machines read the .EXP stitch format, and Bernina's own software adds its editable .ART format.

Bernina machines sit at the higher end of the market. Compare the embroidery field and hoop system on each machine page, because Bernina hoops are not interchangeable with Brother or Janome hoops.
