A machine for sewing artistry, quilting precision, and endless embroidery ideas
The BERNINA B 790 ULTRA is designed for creative people who don’t think of their projects in terms of categories. It sews garments with precision, assists with free-motion quilting, creates custom quilt layouts, and embroiders detailed designs on a wide variety of fabrics. The integrated BISR provides greater confidence when quilting, the intelligent stitch plate recognition ensures the correct workflow, and the pinpoint-accurate laser facilitates precise placement. Together with the L Embroidery Module featuring Smart Drive Technology, it creates a modern creative system that combines technical precision with true creative freedom.
An artfully quilted blanket, a perfectly embroidered favorite piece, or a garment with extraordinary details: The BERNINA B 790 ULTRA guides you through your creative projects from the first sketch to the final stitch. It combines true precision with tangible comfort and gives you the freedom to express everything you want to with fabric, color, and thread. For creative people who don’t just want to sew—they want to design.
Product details
overview
The BERNINA B 790 ULTRA, including the L embroidery module with Smart Drive Technology, is a premium sewing, quilting, and embroidery machine for anyone who wants to bring their creative ideas to life without technical limitations. It combines a spacious work area, precise BERNINA stitch quality, and versatile convenience features with a powerful embroidery system for demanding projects.
When sewing, the B 790 ULTRA supports you with BERNINA Dual Feed, a high-precision laser, an automatic needle threader, an automatic thread cutter, and cross-feed for sewing in various directions. You can design your own stitches right on the screen, and decorative stitch patterns and monograms can be impressively enlarged using the Jumbo Stitch function. Thanks to the Undo and Redo functions, every creative step remains traceable, even with complex stitch combinations.
A key new feature is the integrated BERNINA Stitch Regulator, or BISR for short. When used with the included BISR stitch plate and a compatible BERNINA free-motion quilting foot, it ensures consistent stitch lengths during free-motion quilting—even with varying sewing speeds and when doing ruler work. This creates a particularly controlled, relaxed quilting experience, whether you’re practicing your first free-motion lines or creating large-scale quilt patterns.
The B 790 ULTRA also opens up new possibilities for computer-controlled quilting. Quilt patterns can be positioned, scaled, adjusted, cropped, and combined. With 2-, 3-, and 4-point placement—including morphing—patterns can be precisely tailored to surfaces, corners, and special shapes. Your own quilting projects can be saved directly on the machine in BQM format and edited later.
The included Embroidery Module L with BERNINA Smart Drive Technology ensures smooth movements, precise stitch patterns, and a particularly comfortable embroidery experience. The free-arm also makes it easier to embroider tubular projects such as shirts, sleeves, pant legs, or bags. Via Wi-Fi, embroidery designs can be transferred using the optional BERNINA Embroidery Software 9, and embroidery processes can be monitored with the BERNINA Stitchout app.
The centrally located color touchscreen makes operation intuitive. The built-in Help Center provides direct access to tutorials, the user manual, and advisory features. If needed, you can also access the Help Center on your smartphone or tablet via a QR code. The BERNINA B 790 ULTRA is thus a well-designed, all-in-one solution for sophisticated sewing, detailed embroidery, and modern quilting.
Characteristics
The BERNINA B 790 ULTRA is an exceptionally versatile creative system that seamlessly combines precise sewing, free-motion quilting, computer-controlled quilting, and embroidery. The integrated BERNINA Stitch Regulator ensures consistent stitches during free-motion quilting, while the automatic needle plate detection provides added safety and recognizes whichever sensor needle plate is in use. The high-precision laser indicates the needle’s entry point, making it easier to position, topstitch, and embroider with precision.
The Jumbo Stitch function allows you to enlarge selected stitch patterns and monograms for a particularly striking effect. The cross-feed opens up additional creative possibilities for multidirectional decorative stitches, and the Stitch Designer helps you develop your own patterns. The L embroidery module with Smart Drive Technology ensures smooth, quiet movement and high-quality embroidery results. The complete package is rounded out by Wi-Fi features, the Help Center, and extensive options for editing quilt and embroidery designs directly on the screen.
Application
The BERNINA B 790 ULTRA is ideal for high-quality sewing, quilting, and embroidery projects in a home creative studio. It is a versatile choice for clothing, home textiles, bags, patchwork, large-format quilts, appliqués, monograms, and detailed embroidery designs. Thanks to the free arm, tubular fabrics such as shirts, sleeves, pant legs, or children’s clothing can also be embroidered with ease.
For free-motion quilting, the BISR needle plate with sensor is used in combination with a suitable BERNINA free-motion quilting foot. For computer-controlled quilting, quilt patterns can be positioned directly on the screen, adjusted to fit specific areas, cropped, or combined into cohesive layouts. When embroidering, the precise positioning functions help align designs neatly on the fabric.
