The most informative set up video for my Bernina Embroidery machine that I have seen! Thank you so much! I have been struggling, but have learned so much from this beautifully clear, precise and well presented tutorial. You do a brilliant job!

[@carolynberkram1066]

Unboxed my module and tried to learn from book. Ugh. Then I watched this video and was fairly comfortable with my set up in no time. Thank you!

[@elainemcatee4347]

Caity, your Bernina videos are the best I have found, you speak so clearly and concisely and no talking just to hear yourself talk! I brought home my new Bernina 790 Plus Crystal Edition yesterday and you have gotten me jump started! Thanks so much!

[@AmelieScott]

This instructor is awesome! She is easy to listen too, articulate, and a cutie pie too! Hi Caity!

[@judyholbrook8170]

Wonderful video! Thanks for a great explanation and step by step instructions! Perfect for beginners!

[@DianaHarveyClark]

I got my Bernina 880 Plus in July 2019, I got 2 classes on how to operate the machine before Covid 19 shutdown happened. I have been doing garment sewing, making quilt blocks, etc. I had my embroidery module put away too scared to touch it until I watched your videos & you made it look so easy. You answered all my questions .Today 8/22/2021 I am embroidering & loving it! Thank you Thank you Thank you! (You are a wonderful instructor!)

[@marbour100]

Thank you, I have learned so much here.

[@kcoxtx]

The perfect refresher tutorial! So easy to follow! Thank you!!

[@ROBINSNAILS2007]

Cathy, I just want to say I was so afraid to use my new embroidery machine but you have certainly help me to have more confidence and in no time I know I’ll be doing beautiful in embroidery. Thank you and please keep them coming. I appreciate you so much.

[@loriannpayne4483]

Wow - I just picked up a Bernina 880 Plus. You, young lady are an AWESOME instructor. Not only do you tell us how to do something but WHY we should do it that way or the options for changing somethings. I’m so impressed. I just calibrated all my hoops and touched the screen along with you. It appears that the 880 has a few more icons than your 770 but I’m sure that there is help for that on KZbin. I’ve learned enough for one day anyway! I’ve had top of the line Janome Machines for 30 years, so switching to a Bernina is a little mind boggling at the moment (mostly on the sewing side). I’ll look to see if you have a “sewing basics” Vlog as well…. Thank you so much for your time and clear tutorial!

[@osusanna3619]

Thank you for this. I’ve been needing a refresher on embroidery for my machine. This is a huge help!

[@midgekincaid2989]

I am so excited that I saw this video. Clear instructional at a reasonable pace. Now I need to see a Bernina video on how to embroider a quilt label on my 790 Plus.

[@nancydebiasio5273]

Your explanation’s are awesome! I just bought a 7 series and can’t wait to try it! Thanks

[@barbarajohnston7642]

Teaching is obviously one of your gifts. Clear presentation, thank you!

[@deniselauffer8577]

This is the most informative tutorial package I’ve ever seen! wOW!! Thank You, THANK YOU!

[@retinabluz]

Thank you for an incredibly helpful jam packed yet clear & concise video tutorial. Not one wasted word! Fantastic.

[@marciazakrajsek8706]

This was such a fabulous, well organized, and easily understood video. I learned more watching this video than in the 2 visits I made to the dealer for the intro session. You covered everything I needed to get confidently started with my embroidery module. I was able to run the video near my machine and stop/start to actually get some embroidery done successfully! Thanks so much! I'll use this as a ready reference. Great job.

[@Chickasawndngirl]

Thank you so much! Just now working on my first embroidery and your video was super helpful!!! ❤️

[@emilyhwang2066]

Thank you so much. It is really a good timing to watch this cause I've been thinking to try my embroidery module. You are the best!

[@suemontag2162]

Wish I had found this video months ago! Excellent! Thank you!

[@annashetler5618]

This is such a great help. Have had embroidery machine for several years and never really used it. This is fantastic and will watch the next series. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[@shuttlepilot]

Outstanding tutorial ! You went in depth, gave the hows and the whys, all in a clear, concise way. Excellent teacher.

[@terrywaters6618]

Great tutorial. I got my Tula Pink Bernina 570 QE May of 2020 and because of Covid my dealer was not able to show me any of the basics for the embroidery attachment. Took me a couple of months just to unpack the attachment and then several more months before actually attaching it to my machine. With your tutorial I now have enough confidence to try using it. Thank you so much!!!!

[@lindadeis4818]

Caity is a fabulous instructor! She goes step by step with a logical, well-planned scripting. I picked up a little 590 last weekend to use as a travel/class/retreat machine. I tuned into her videos because it had been several years since I did the set up of my 790. Well! I learned so much! Stuff I had never been taught! I will never regret buying my machines at Quilt Beginnings - service and training are top of the line!

[@johannebrunner6477]

Very well organized and informative. With no class this is a life saver.

[@josephinebaich8341]

Great tutorial! I am new to the Bernette Deco 70. This has helped me a lot! Thank-you!

[@gigiturner8781]

This was so informative. I thought I was going to have to carry my machine two hours away for repair. I just needed the education in what to do. Thank you so much!

[@cherylszeluga536]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Your video is the best training video I've watched so far. I will continue to watch for additional videos you created tied to the Bernina sewing and embroidery features. I'm using my 770QE for quilting and embroidery. Again, my sincere thanks!!

[@beckyvanhaselen2208]

You are an amazing teacher. I will be anxiously awaiting to hear more from your channel.

[@judithheckathorn5100]

This was so very helpful. It was way better than the classes I took thru my shop. thank you.

[@LizJones52]

Excellent video with clear and easy to follow information. I’ve learned a lot about the embroidery settings by trial and error, after having attended one 5 hour class. This video gave me a refresher course and emphasized some important considerations prior to stitching out a design.

[@ellajaniak2383]

Thank you for this fantastic video. You are a great teacher

[@shaleemusic]

Excellent presentation to watch before a lesson and again afterward. I can't count how many times I paused the video to make sure I was doing things correctly for my "dry run." I am recommending this video to others in my class. Thanks!!

[@sueb4496]

This is amazing! Thank you. I’ve had my unit for 6 months and been worried about it. And now my daughter is getting married. First job linen serviettes. Thank so much.

[@mabelbrooks9881]

This is the best video on Bernina "Getting Started" Embroidery lesson. Your a great teacher! So glad I found this video tonight! All my questions were answered. Thanks! looking forward to the next lesson.

[@kappygraney5218]

Your teaching is so awesome, so clear and very understandable. I've been sewing for years on Berninas, but I'm newer to embroidery. My husband surprised me with a Tula 770qee last winter. I have to say, the Embroidery Basics class I attended from my Bernina dealer was nowhere near as thorough as this one. I've learned so much through your video. I immediately subscribed to your KZbin channel and can't wait to learn more from you and actually start using my embroidery module with confidence. Thank you!!!

[@springslady1]

Excellent! You are a great teacher!!!

[@christinea52]

Great resource video! Thank you for making it.

[@carolineioannidis4186]

Thank you for sharing. Lots of information. I will now play with my machine it has been sitting for a year.

[@theresaa6767]

Very helpful instruction. Thank you!

[@ginahayes6169]

You’re amazing, great instructions! 😊 thank you so much 😊

[@marinetefalcao]

Wow! You are amazing! So big help with embroidery tips!!!

[@theresaford7863]

Caity, thank you so much for this excellent tutorial. I attended my first embroidery class at my Bernina center yesterday, and frankly, it was a bit overwhelming for a lot of us who knew nothing about our embroider machines. I'm so happy I found your video this morning. You clearly and concisely reviewed everything our instructor presented yesterday, so this was a fantastic way to review the basics. The close-ups of your Bernina were extremely helpful as well. My confidence level has grown a lot already. Again, thank you!

[@fp1376]

I have ordered an embroidery unit for my 770 & am waiting for it to arrive. Thank you for this very helpful tutorial! The embroidering looks much less intimidating than I thought. I am sure I will be re-watching this video once I starting playing with my machine.

[@meondarocks]

Thank you! Great teacher and content.

[@ladybridey8559]

Thanks so much for helping me! You are an awesome teacher!

[@Str8eeth]

Thank you so much for this video….I bought my first Bernina in October and live far enough away from the store that it’s hard to get there for any help. I’ve not been at all impressed so far with this 735, but maybe with your help I can learn to maneuver through all of the fun things I hope it can do!

[@kathyvanacoro5462]

Wish I found this 2 years ago when I got my 590...extremely helpful

[@sharontuckerlewis7325]

Your teaching style is clear and concise. i just purchased the 770 Plus and i am too impatient to wait on the mastery classes. Can’t wait until you teach on the 2021 machines.

[@vjbritton]

Fantastic video. Thank you!

[@joanneventorini7960]

Super info and reminders. Thank you.

[@palmastewart2389]

Excellent video! Concise and professionally done. Kudos

[@carolfalcione4511]

Wonderful instructional video. Thank you!

[@patriciasyverson]

Awesome video. Very informative and helpful info. Thanks Patty

[@terimcmahon5276]

Excellent training!

[@cherryleger2104]

I have a 570 QE but didn’t buy the embroidery module however I think I do need to buy it now I have seen your fantastic video

[@user-xq8xh1nc7k]

Found this very clear and useful. First time machine embroidery user. Have watched others but not as clear as this.

[@cynthialong4514]

This video is very helpful! Thank you

[@carolemaisonneuve6191]

Thanks so much. Our video is perfect and the best I’ve seen yet. Please bring out the second embroidery.

[@ruthdrews496]

I have to agree with other comments…..you’re an excellent teacher, slow speaking and you explain well. I haven’t used my embroiderer since we moved 2yrs ago because of all the added yard work I didn’t have before that takes up a lot of my time and exhausting, so I thought I would have to go back in to take lesions for the basics which I didn’t want to do, but running into your video you have explained more than what I was originally taught…..looking forward to any other videos you may have…..

[@Newtocrusing]

Great tutorial - keep it up.

[@karlsmith2052]

Wow, thanks for this! It is soo helpful and informative and super clear.. I am now going to send time on every step of this tutorial with my new 790.

[@colleenpaul3480]

Very professional and east to follow!

[@999999olga]

So nice video!!!! Thank you so much

[@rital3041]

I learned so much from this video! Wish I lived in Dublin, OH so I could take more classes from you!

[@patsorbello7440]

ThNk you so much, this has been so helpful.

[@sirrahfen]

Wonderful presentation! Dankeschön from Germany :)

[@roxanemcdaniel9797]

Thank you so much for this video.

[@marshatwiford4230]

Caity, you are an incredibly gifted teacher/instructor! This tutorial is fabulous! I am trying to familiarize myself with my new 700E and I will watch this again and again! The only thing I might suggest is using the stylus when choosing the buttons on the machine in order to see the buttons you are selecting more easily? Thank you so much for sharing your gift!

[@jcrafthouse]

This was great. Thank you.

[@csbollard2698]

Great explanations

[@patsorbello7440]

Is this the only tutorial that you did on embroidery? You are a excellent instructor , I have learned so much and now have confidence that I never had before. Thank You so much.

[@karenjackson1700]

Great job

[@sandyfellows6824]

So very helpful thank you

[@akrishsgila7163]

It was amazing explanation you are good teacher 👌🏻👌🏻

[@danlycans5307]

Wonderful presentation. I learned so much . I am so lucky, I just live 10 miles from your store. I hope to take some classes from you

[@QuiltBeginnings]

Thanks Dan! We'd love to have you in class. Stop by the store anytime, or visit our website quiltbeginnings.com/ to see what classes we're currently offering!

[@pjfountaine7755]

Thanks. And the tip to watch it first all the way thru sounds like a good idea haha

[@maryannevanoff4464]

Loved the training. Wish we could do it in the stores! Dealers need to do more hands on. It will sell a lot ,ore product!,

[@jacquesenecal7923]

Very good video,TY

[@suzannej9895]

I wished that you would back the camera for the machine to see what you are talking about. But these are great instructions especially for a newbie like me. Thank you!

[@patsorbello7440]

Would like more information about stitch density, I tried to increase my letter larger on a towel and it was terrible, so this is great information.

[@paulav4950]

AWESOME instructor! Keep it up 👍🏼, I sure appreciate it!

[@Arrelcy]

Very helpful video! I would like to know a couple of things...Is this operation strictly the machine function? How does embroidery software factor in? I am finding this very confusing to determine what I actually need. Can the 535 Bernina read or convert .ART designs to the newer .EXP files? (I have some .ART files I had for my previous 440QE that I would like to use, but don't have the .EXP versions.)

[@mariafelice798]

Thanks you 🌹

[@patriciaschultz6876]

Great video, very informative! Is there another video on saving designs in the sewing side and then bringing that design over to the embroidery side?

[@pandorawatkins4510]

Very good video

[@user-dc3xl8cy2g]

Thenk you sow mach

[@maryannevanoff4464]

Kate is great!

[@yankee8572]

There was a battery icon flashing where the bobbin icon is, what does that mean? Thank you so much for this excellent video!!!! It is so much easier to understand than reading the manual. Great job!!!

[@ltobosa]

I appreciate your presentation skills. Is there a follow up Embroidery video yet?

[@user-dc3xl8cy2g]

Tank you sow mach

[@deborahcortey906]

Brilliant, I wish I had watched this a year ago

[@linzjan4276]

Can you use the satin stitch density feature to frame an image or label or must you be working with the embroderiery module and hoop

[@bellindanotari2721]

can you display & give as much information possible on the Bernina 590CE, because I am going to buy it soon, please?

[@bellindanotari2721]

can we calibrate the settings of all the hope, before an update & keep it safe somewhere, on a USB of in the favorites or whatever? Suggestions, please

[@lisarcouncil]

Can you use 7 software for the bernette Chicago 7 Subline and does your videos apply to this machine. Thank you

[@lisest-jacques5855]

Can you quilt in the hoop with the Bernina 570QE?

[@annemckenzie2949]

I have been having trouble with my thread when I start edge to edge quilting. This video gave me some options to try when setting up my machine to see if I have the setting wrong.

[@victorpineda4109]

I am just learning my Bernina 770 QE. I am using the embroidery. I would like to know how to go backward if my thread brakes. I can't find anything on that subject

[@psutton473]

Where can I get the “Big Book of Embroidery” you referenced? Is that special Bernina book?
