Key Specifications

Key Features

1. BERNINA Stitch Regulator (BSR) with Dual Sensors
The Q24 features an integrated BERNINA Stitch Regulator that ensures perfect, consistent stitch lengths regardless of how fast or slow you move the machine . It has two built-in sensors on the needle plate for precise fabric movement detection . It offers multiple modes:

• BSR 1 & 2: For regulated free-motion quilting.

• BSR 3: For basting stitches .

• Manual Mode: For quilting without stitch regulation .

2. Digital Thread Tension
The exclusive digital tension system allows you to adjust the top thread tension numerically via the touch screen (0-10), eliminating guesswork and making it easy to use a wide range of thread types .

3. User Interface & Touch Screen
The 4.3" color touch screen provides simple navigation and complete control over the machine. It includes built-in tutorials, a stitch counter, and the ability to save 5 different user profiles with personalized settings .

4. 8-Way Adjustable Handles
The ergonomic handles are fully adjustable (up/down, in/out, twist/turn) to suit your preferred quilting position . They feature programmable buttons that can be customized for functions like needle up/down, tie-off, or speed adjustment .

5. Superior Lighting
The machine head is equipped with 50 bright, dimmable LED lights that run the full 24-inch length of the free arm, illuminating the entire quilting area for enhanced visibility .

6. Convenience Features

• On-Board Bobbin Winder: Located at the front of the machine for winding bobbins independently of sewing .

• Semi-Automatic Needle Threader: For easy and fast threading .

• Easy Threading Path: Designed for a smooth, forward-threading process .

• Compatible Feet: Uses standard BERNINA locking feet (e.g., Darning Foot #9) and is compatible with free-motion quilting feet from domestic BERNINA machines .

7. Frame & Ergonomics
Designed for use with anodized aluminum BERNINA PRO Frames, the system allows for full operation from the front of the machine, reducing strain . The frame height is adjustable, and a hydraulic lift is optionally available . Computer-aided quilting is possible with the optional BERNINA Q-matic software on Large and Classic frames .
