Bernette B37 Review: Sewing Machine with Big Features & Small Price Tag

Thick fabric layers usually can get caught under a standard presser foot lift.

The Bernette B37 features 2-step presser foot lift specifically designed to work with thick fabrics, allowing for more clearance when stacking multiple layers of fabric.

The first lift provides some some extra space, but the second step takes it up a notch, creating ample space for large projects like quilts or dense fabrics.

The increased space allows for more control when placing multiple layers of fabric precisely under the needle, ensuring your stitches hit the right spot every time.
