the bar keeps stitches on perfect course,
regardless of fabric thickness.

With more than double the speed of the
typical household machine, the 950
increases production and profitability while
decreasing the time it takes to complete a
project.
One-piece Metal Presser Feet
Seven presser feet included; most of
BERNINA's extensive foot collection can
be used with the 950. Not only does this
enhance the 950's functionality, it makes
any sewing project faster and easier.
