If you're searching for a reliable, high-quality sewing machine that meets the needs of both beginners and advanced sewists, the Bernina B325 is a standout choice. At the workroom, it’s not just our best-selling machine – it's also the trusted model we use in our classroom and studio. Let’s dive into what makes the Bernina B325 such a beloved staple in our community.
What Makes the Bernina B325 Special?
1. User-Friendly Yet Powerful
The Bernina B325 is a compact, computerized sewing machine with just the right mix of functionality and simplicity. Whether you’re tackling your first project or exploring more intricate designs, this machine offers intuitive features like:
94 built-in stitches, including utility stitches, decorative stitches, and buttonholes.
A clear LCD screen for easy stitch selection and customization.
Automatic buttonhole function for consistent, professional results every time.
The interface is straightforward, making it perfect for beginners, but there’s plenty of power and precision for experienced sewists, too.
2. Stitch Quality That Stands Out
Bernina is renowned for impeccable stitch quality, and the B325 is no exception. This machine handles various fabrics with ease – from delicate silks to sturdy denim. The CB hook system ensures smooth and consistent stitching, making each seam look professional.
3. Compact and Classroom-Friendly
At the workroom, we value tools that are both practical and durable for everyday use. The Bernina B325 is compact enough to fit in smaller sewing spaces or transport to classes, but it doesn’t compromise on quality. This balance makes it an ideal machine for our workshops and studio environment.
4. Customizable and Creative
Creativity is at the heart of sewing, and the B325 helps bring your ideas to life with:
Customizable stitch length and width for greater flexibility.
An automatic needle threader to save time and frustration.
A bright LED light to illuminate your workspace, ensuring you don’t miss a stitch.
5. Built to Last
Investing in a Bernina means investing in longevity. The B325 is built with high-quality materials and Swiss engineering, ensuring it stands up to years of sewing. It’s a machine that grows with you – whether you're learning basic skills or refining advanced techniques.
Why We Chose It for Our Studio
When selecting machines for our classroom, we needed something dependable, easy to teach on, and versatile enough for different projects. The Bernina B325 checks all those boxes:
Easy to learn New sewists feel confident using it within minutes.
Reliable: No skipped stitches or jammed bobbins – it keeps up with the demands of busy workshops.
Adaptable: Perfect for sewing everything from garments to quilts and home décor.
Our students and instructors love how quickly they can transition from learning basic seams to experimenting with decorative stitches and buttonholes.

We acknowledge and deeply appreciate that the land on which we now live and operate in Sprucedale, within the Almaguin Highlands, is part of the traditional and ancestral territory of many Indigenous peoples, including the Anishinaabeg, specifically the Ojibwe and Algonquin nations.
This region is situated within the lands covered by the Robinson-Huron Treaty of 1850, and remains home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples.
We honor the enduring presence and stewardship of Indigenous communities - past, present, and future and we commit to ongoing learning, respect, and relationship with the land and its original caretakers.
