Description
The BERNINA Coverstitch Hemmer #C31 is a purpose-built accessory for the BERNINA L 890 that takes the guesswork out of hemming. By folding and feeding fabric simultaneously, it produces clean, even coverstitch hems on light to medium weight materials — including knits, jerseys, and woven fabrics — without pinning or repeated measuring. If you finish garments, activewear, or home décor on the L 890 and want consistently professional results, this foot belongs in your toolkit.
Key Features
