Bartack Attack! Small in Size, Big in Strength
Sep 02, 2025Bartacks are essential for reinforcing high-stress areas like belt loops, pocket corners, and slits on garments. BERNINA machines offer specialized programs to create perfect bartacks and decorative fly stitches with ease:
- Bartack Program #24: Produces a straight-stitched rectangle with narrow zigzag stitches, ideal for belt loops and pocket corners.
- Bartack Program #25: Creates tightly spaced zigzag stitches, perfect for reinforcing pocket openings, seam ends, and shortened zippers.
- Fly Stitch Programs (#26 and #27): Decorative bartacks for stress areas on garments, bags, and more. Program #27 offers a narrow stitch, while #26 provides a wider option.
For optimal results, use Open Embroidery Foot #20C for clear visibility and position your fabric before stitching. Each program automatically stops when the stitch is complete.
Keep in mind that stitch availability varies depending on your specific BERNINA model.
