From the first stitch to a personal signature

With the bernette 59, simple sewing projects become personal favourites. A name on a dog bandana, lettering on a hoodie, a small design on a bag, or a border on home textiles: the b59 makes it easy not only to sew ideas but also to personalize them visibly.

Thanks to the StitchDirect app, your project doesn't start at the machine. You can design motifs on the go, adapt existing designs, and send your ideas to the b59 via Wi-Fi. The machine then guides you with clear operation, practical convenience functions, and an embroidery area that allows for larger lettering and designs. This fosters creativity that doesn't seem complicated but simply brings joy in the making.

Product details

overview

The bernette 59 is a compact sewing and embroidery machine for anyone who doesn't want to stop at sewing, but wants to immediately expand their projects with individual embroidery designs, lettering, and creative details. It combines the convenience of a modern computerized sewing machine with an easy introduction to embroidery, offering a great deal of scope for clothing, home textiles, accessories, gifts, children's projects, patchwork, and personalized favorite items.

The free StitchDirect app for iOS and Android turns the b59 into a mobile creative hub. On your smartphone or tablet, you can draw your own embroidery designs and decorative stitches, trace images, and combine, mirror, rotate and scale existing designs. You can then transfer your creations conveniently to the machine via Wi-Fi. During embroidery, the app notifies you of required thread changes and messages from the upper and lower thread monitoring system.

The bernette Creative Consultant integrated into the StitchDirect app helps you prepare your sewing project. Depending on the material and application, it recommends a suitable stitch, presser foot and needle, as well as the appropriate stabilizer and thread type when required.

With the included multi-position embroidery hoop, you can create designs, borders and lettering up to 300 × 120 mm. The display tells you when to reposition the hoop for the next embroidery section. Within the regular embroidery area, designs can be enlarged or reduced by up to 20% directly on the machine without additional software. The machine includes 268 embroidery designs and 11 embroidery alphabets. It also supports common embroidery file formats including EXP, PES, DST, JEF, HUS, PEC, PCS, SEW, VIP, VP3 and XXX.

The bernette 59 is also versatile in terms of sewing. 515 sewing stitches, including 3 alphabets, offer a wide selection for utility stitches, decorative stitches, quilting stitches, buttonholes, and individual design. Settings can be clearly made via the 3.5" color touchscreen. Comfort features such as the semi-automatic needle threader, the automatic thread cutter, the start/stop button, the speed controller, needle stop up/down, and adjustable presser foot pressure significantly facilitate the workflow.

The Click & Lift stitch plate makes switching between sewing, embroidering, and straight stitching particularly comfortable. The stitch plate can be lifted and replaced at the touch of a button, completely without a screwdriver. Upper and lower thread monitors, automatic embroidery hoop recognition, and stitch plate recognition ensure additional safety during work. With 170 mm of space to the right of the needle, the b59 also offers enough room for many everyday sewing and quilting projects.

The machine is also interesting for creative special techniques: The b59 is CutWork Tool compatible, making it suitable for precise cutouts, openwork embroidery, and decorative breakthrough effects. The lowerable feed dog opens up further possibilities for quilting and free-motion work. Thus, the bernette 59 is a modern combination machine for anyone who wants to sew flexibly, design creatively, and get started with embroidery easily.

Application

The bernette 59 is suitable for a wide range of creative sewing and embroidery projects. You can mend, decorate or sew new clothes, personalize accessories, design home textiles, realize patchwork and quilting projects or create individual gifts. The b59 is particularly strong wherever sewing and embroidery are combined: names on children's clothing, monograms on towels, lettering on bags, motifs on dog bandanas or decorative borders on cushions and table linen.

Motifs can be prepared, modified and sent directly to the machine via the StitchDirect app. This makes the b59 not only a machine for classic sewing, but also a creative tool for individual designs and personalized projects.
