10" SPACE TO THE RIGHT OF THE NEEDLE
The B 790 ULTRA gives you a full 10 inches of workspace to the right of the needle — the most in the BERNINA 7 Series. The Jumbo Bobbin Hook holds 70% more thread than standard bobbins, meaning fewer stops and more time sewing. The extra-large embroidery area (15.7" × 8.3") is powered by the included Embroidery Module L with Smart Drive Technology.
2,248 STITCHES + 610 EMBROIDERY DESIGNS
With 2,248 built-in stitches — including 754 decorative, 171 sideways-motion, and 74 quilting stitches — the B 790 ULTRA has a stitch for every project. 610 embroidery designs, 25 alphabets, Shape Designer, Color Wheel, and Endless Embroidery give you creative freedom without limits.
NEW: BERNINA INTEGRATED STITCH REGULATOR (BISR)
The BERNINA Integrated Stitch Regulator (BISR) is built directly into the B 790 ULTRA — no separate foot required. It ensures perfectly even stitch lengths across every quilting application, including ruler work, and is fully compatible with all BERNINA quilting feet and all BSR modes.
ULTRA SMART QUILTING
New Customizable Quilt Designs (BQM) bring professional longarm-style quilting to your home machine. 3-Point Placement, Crop, Connect, and Start/Stop Editing give you precise control over every design. Stitch Plate Recognition, WiFi transfer, and the BERNINA Stitchout App keep the B 790 ULTRA one step ahead.
