Overview
BERNINA 350 Special Edition: smart and versatile
Two well-designed champions
Two amazing designers. Two amazing special editions added to the BERNINA 3 Series line. Standard accessories for the two new sewing machines include the slide-on extension table, the practical Free Hand System (FHS), the BERNINA walking foot as well as two additional feet for quilting and patchwork. The B 350 Ricky Tims and Tula Pink Special Editions are great machines for quilters, especially those who admire the skills of our two famous quilters. The B 350 Special Edition sews a variety of fabric types with ease, as well as quilts and embellishes. Two sewing alphabets are available. As your skill set grows, the B 350 SE is easily upgraded with lots of optional accessories
B 350 SE comes with Quilting foot #29
Quilting foot # 29 is a special presser foot for easy free-motion, outline and stipple quilting.
The vertical spring presses the foot securely to your project, preventing the fabric from riding up with the needle (flagging). The material therefore lies flat while it is being sewn, allowing you to produce neat, consistent stitches. For even greater sewing ease, Quilting foot # 29 features a clear sole, giving you a perfect view of both needle and stitching area at all times.
High-precision automatic buttonhole function
Sew buttonholes with precise accuracy! With the BERNINA 350 SE’s automatic buttonhole function, it could hardly be simpler: the preset buttonhole length is stored in the internal memory, letting you sew buttonholes of the exact same length as often as you wish. Here the BERNINA 350 SE solves a difficult problem, since sewing identical buttonholes can be a bit tricky. With the BERNINA 350 SE, buttonholes of different lengths are things of the past: the automatic buttonhole function gives you perfect results in no time flat. The BERNINA 350 SE gives you a choice of two permanently programmed buttonhole styles to ensure that even beginners simply and nearly effortlessly achieve optimal results that will stand up to the most critical scrutiny.
Memory function with 30 storage locations
The BERNINA 350 SE makes room for your personal creativity: its memory offers space for the permanent storage of up to 30 stitch pattern combinations. This means you needn’t reprogram your personal stitch pattern combinations each time – the long-term memory of the 350 SE ensures that they’re immediately available the next time you turn on your machine. The direct-selection keys let you access the saved stitches in no time flat – this saves time and increases your enjoyment, allowing you to reuse your own personal favorite combinations or most frequently used stitches effortlessly and whenever you feel like it. This memory functionality of the BERNINA 350 SE offers a premium touch that is by no means a given in entry-level models – Swiss quality, designed with attention to detail.
191 Stitches for every situation
One of the most compelling arguments in favor of the BERNINA 350 SE is its extensive stitch library: 85 pre-programmed stitches, making the 350 SE a versatile precision tool. The direct-selection function and modern, bright LCD display allow you to switch between different stitch patterns in a matter of seconds. With 20 utility stitches, two buttonhole stitches, a full 52 decorative stitches, and 11 quilting stitches, the BERNINA 350 SE is an outstanding choice for everyday mending jobs and alterations, as well as creative sewing and quilting. The simple, intuitive handling, first-class functionality, and solid construction of the BERNINA 350 SE ensure that you will continue to enjoy working with this machine for a long time to come – even when you make the transition from simple to more demanding projects.
Extension table for larger work area
The BERNINA 350 SE counts among its features a free-arm extension table enabling you to increase your work area quickly, affording you greater ease when sewing, and allowing for optimum control in guiding your project. Together with the bright LED sewing light, this provides you with the perfect view of your project. Large-format projects in particular can be handled effortlessly – and once you are done, remove the BERNINA 350 SE’s extension table with the push of a button to return to freearm sewing.

Accessories Included
Reverse pattern foot # 1
Reverse pattern foot # 1 is the ideal presser foot for sewing forward and reverse-feed utility and decorative stitches.
BERNINA metal bobbins
Four different versions of the BERNINA bobbin are available. The metal bobbins can be used on all BERNINA sewing machines apart from the 7 Series and 8 Series.
Buttonhole foot with slide # 3A
Depending on the model, Buttonhole foot with slide # 3A determines the desired buttonhole length for identical buttonholes either via a sensor or manually.
Zipper foot # 4
Thanks to its narrow, centrally positioned toe, Zipper foot # 4 can stitch very close to the zipper coils, allowing it to sew the zipper on neatly.
Blindstitch foot # 5
Blindstitch foot # 5 is suitable for sewing blind hems on all fabrics. When this foot is used, you can hardly see the stitching from the front.
BERNINA cordonnet bobbin case for CB hook machines
The special BERNINA cordinnet bobbin case for CB hook machines is ideally suited for sewing with thicker threads, such as cordinnet threads, that cannot fit through the eye of a needle.
Free-arm slide-on table for ultimate sewing comfort
The Slide-on free-arm table is a practical table-extension mechanism for free-arm sewing projects which won’t affect free-arm function when in place.
Free-Hand System (FHS) / Presser foot lifter
The Free-Hand System (FHS) / Presser foot lifter lets you raise the presser foot and lower the feed dog with your knee. Recommended particularly when working with delicate fabrics.
Open embroidery foot # 20
Open embroidery foot # 20 is ideal for embroidering with your sewing machine. The indentation in the sole of the presser foot allows it to glide smoothly over dense stitches.
Quilting foot # 29
The vertical spring action of Quilting foot # 29 presses the foot firmly to your project, preventing the fabric from flagging and ensuring a neat stitch pattern.
Patchwork foot # 37
Patchwork foot # 37 features special markings and a straight stitch opening and is ideal for patchwork and precision sewing.
