Needles for Bernina Sewing Machines

Please Note

• Older machines sometimes get retrofitted with needle bars that handle use different needle systems from the original design.
• There are occasionally instances where the needle point, needle size, or both affect the needle system designation. The most common exceptions occur with DBx1, 134, 1738A, 135x16. and 135x17. Details
