We’re coming to you from the Global Sewing Summit in Tennessee with Karen Charles for a first look at the new PFAFF creative icon 3.

You can now draw your own stitches directly on the screen, create custom Maxi stitches, adjust individual needle points, and choose the stitch length you want. There is even a new undo feature, so you can experiment freely without worrying about starting over.
Karen will also be visiting our stores September 23rd through the 26th to share inspiring samples, creative techniques, and more of the incredible features found on this machine. Sewers, quilters, and embroidery enthusiasts will all find something new to enjoy.

Meet the new BERNINA L 660, a serger designed to make sewing feel easier, smoother, and more enjoyable.
https://www.montavillasewing.com/products/bernina-l-660
The BERNINA L 660 may look like a traditional serger, but it includes thoughtful features that make a real difference while you sew. It offers air threading for both loopers, illuminated threading areas, adjustable sewing speed, needle up and down control, a dimmable work light, and a convenient knee lift.
When you raise the presser foot with the knee lift, the feed dogs automatically lower, making it easy to position or remove your fabric. The presser foot can also pivot out of the way for better access when threading or making adjustments.
The L 660 also gives you precise control over your stitch width and stitch finger, helping you create smooth, balanced stitches along the edge of your fabric.
It is a comfortable, approachable serger with plenty of advanced features to help make your sewing experience easier.
We look forward to showing you more about the new BERNINA L 660 at Montavilla Sewing Centers.

A new BERNINA is coming this fall, and it may be the perfect fit for your sewing room.
Brett is coming to us from BERNINA University in New Orleans with a first look at the new BERNINA 790 Ultra.
https://www.montavillasewing.com/products/bernina-790-ultra
The 790 Ultra brings some of the most-loved features from the top-of-the-line BERNINA 990 into the familiar, more compact 790 platform. You can create jumbo stitches, work with additional quilting design formats, and enjoy advanced capabilities in a machine that is easier to transport to classes and more accessible than the larger 990.
The BERNINA 990 offers 12 inches of workspace, while the 790 Ultra provides 10 inches, making it a wonderful choice for anyone who wants premium features in a slightly smaller machine.
We look forward to welcoming you into Montavilla Sewing Centers and helping you decide whether the new 790 Ultra is right for you.
