What You Will Learn:

The purpose of a BERNINA Serger Mastery class is to help owners understand and confidently use their serger. It’s designed to:

• Demystify threading – Sergers can look intimidating, and threading is often the biggest stumbling block. Mastery classes walk you through step-by-step so it becomes second nature.
• Explain stitch options & tension settings — You’ll learn how to adjust your serger for different fabrics and finishes (rolled hems, flatlock, overlock, etc.).
• Teach machine-specific functions — For BERNINA models: L450, L460, L850, L860 and L890, you’ll gain detailed instruction on features unique to your machine.
• Build confidence — Instead of letting your serger sit unused, you’ll leave knowing how to troubleshoot, adjust, and get professional-looking results.
• Serve as your “owner’s manual in action” — It reinforces what’s in the book but with hands-on demonstrations and real-time guidance.

In short: the Mastery class ensures you can unlock the full potential of your BERNINA serger and use it as a creative, reliable tool rather than an intimidating machine.

This class is FREE if you bought your BERNINA from Artistic Artifacts.
