Description

Bernina 570QE Sewing Machine

The Bernina 570QE is a premium sewing and quilting machine designed for sewists who want exceptional stitch quality, more workspace and greater control over their projects.

The “QE” stands for Quilter’s Edition, but this machine is much more than a quilting machine. Whether you enjoy quilting, dressmaking, home furnishings or general sewing, the Bernina 570QE delivers the precision, reliability and build quality that Bernina is known for.

Featuring an impressive 8.5 inches of workspace to the right of the needle, Bernina Dual Feed, automatic thread cutting and the Bernina Stitch Regulator included as standard, the 570QE is a machine that can grow with your sewing ambitions for years to come.

Why Choose the Bernina 570QE?

The Bernina 570QE occupies a sweet spot within the Bernina range. It offers many of the features serious sewists and quilters want while remaining more compact and approachable than some of the larger Bernina models.

This machine combines traditional Bernina stitch quality with modern features designed to make sewing easier, faster and more enjoyable. From the first stitch, you notice the smooth operation, precise feeding and solid construction that have made Bernina one of the most respected names in sewing.

Extra Space for Bigger Projects

8.5 Inches of Workspace

One of the biggest advantages of the Bernina 570QE is the generous amount of space to the right of the needle.

With 8.5 inches of workspace, you can comfortably handle larger quilting projects, bulky home furnishing items and substantial dressmaking projects without feeling restricted.

The extra room makes it easier to manoeuvre fabric, reduces drag on larger projects and allows you to work more comfortably for longer periods.

Bernina Stitch Regulator Included

Perfect for Free-Motion Quilting

The Bernina Stitch Regulator, often referred to as the BSR, is included with the Bernina 570QE.

This innovative accessory helps maintain consistent stitch lengths while free-motion quilting, even when your hand speed changes. For many quilters, the BSR is one of the most valuable features Bernina offers.

It allows you to concentrate on creating beautiful quilting designs while the machine helps maintain professional-looking stitch quality.

Bernina Dual Feed

Better Control Over Multiple Layers

The Bernina Dual Feed system helps feed fabric evenly from both the top and bottom.

This is particularly useful when sewing:

• Quilting cottons
• Multiple fabric layers
• Matching stripes and patterns
• Slippery fabrics
• Heavier materials

The result is more accurate seams and improved control throughout the sewing process.

Hover Function

Greater Precision While Sewing

The Bernina Hover Function lifts the presser foot slightly while keeping the needle positioned in the fabric.

This allows you to:

• Pivot accurately around corners
• Reposition fabric with ease
• Improve appliqué work
• Make quilting adjustments more easily

Once you’ve used the hover function, it quickly becomes one of those features you don’t want to be without.

Automatic Thread Cutting

Save Time and Improve Efficiency

At the touch of a button, the Bernina 570QE automatically cuts both the top and bobbin threads.

This feature speeds up sewing, reduces thread waste and helps keep your work area tidy. It may seem like a small convenience, but it makes a noticeable difference during longer sewing sessions.

What Fabrics Can the Bernina 570QE Sew?

The Bernina 570QE is designed to handle a wide variety of fabrics and sewing projects.

It is suitable for:

• Cotton
• Quilting cottons
• Linen
• Jersey
• Ponte Roma
• Denim
• Canvas
• Dressmaking fabrics
• Soft furnishing fabrics
• Quilt wadding and batting

Choosing the correct needle, thread and presser foot will always improve results, and we are happy to advise on the best setup for your projects.

Who Is the Bernina 570QE Right For?

The Bernina 570QE is ideal for:

• Quilters wanting more workspace
• Sewists interested in free-motion quilting
• Dressmakers looking for greater precision
• Customers upgrading from a smaller machine
• Hobbyists wanting a long-term sewing machine investment
• Sewers who value premium build quality

If you want a machine that can support your sewing for many years and continue to meet your needs as your skills develop, the Bernina 570QE is an excellent choice.

Bernina 570QE for Quilting

Quilters are often drawn to the Bernina 570QE because of the combination of workspace, stitch quality and quilting-specific features.

The larger throat space allows quilts to be managed more comfortably, while the BSR helps improve free-motion quilting results. The Dual Feed system also assists with accurate piecing and handling multiple layers.

For many quilters, the Bernina 570QE offers an excellent balance of features and value within the Bernina range.

Bernina 570QE for Dressmaking

Although the machine is marketed as a Quilter’s Edition model, it is equally capable as a dressmaking machine.

The precise feeding system, accurate stitch formation and ability to handle a wide range of fabrics make it suitable for everything from lightweight garments through to structured jackets and heavier projects.

Many customers choose the Bernina 570QE because it offers versatility across multiple sewing disciplines.
