All subscribers of the English Blog Newsletter have the chance to enter a Give Away which will be explained further below. If you are not yet subscribed to the BERNINA Blog newsletter, then you can register here:
BERNINA Blog Newsletter Subscription
Let the hunt begin
This is how you can enter the BERNINA Blog Newsletter Give Away:
Starting on November 2nd 2022, you will receive 4 weekly Blog Newsletters with capital letters hidden in the big title picture (see example above with a red S in the left lower corner). Each newsletter will state how many letters are hidden in the e-mail. Collect all letters and put them into the correct order to find out the keyword. On November 23th 2022 you will receive the last Give Away Newsletter where you can enter the keyword. All subscribers with the correct keyword will enter the prize draw of the BERNINA Blog Newsletter Give Away.
Prizes
You can win one of five fantastic prizes:
BERNINA is giving away a bernette b05 ACADEMY for one lucky winner. Equipped with a wide range of functions, 30 exclusive stitches, a fast motor and 12 included presser feet, the b05 ACADEMY lets you quickly realize your wildest ideas. For tricky projects that require a slower pace, you can reduce the maximum sewing speed. Who knows what ideas you will have tomorrow? The b05 ACADEMY will always be there for you!
BREWER is giving away surprise bundles to four lucky winners with 3-6 items from their exclusive Kaffe Fassett notions which launch this fall. Kaffe Fassett partners with Brewer Quilting and Sewing Supplies to produce new line of colorful notions that coordinate with the BERNINA Limited Edition Sewing Machines. Kaffe says “What’s interesting about working with Brewer is their total attention to detail every step of the way!”
The exclusive Kaffe Fassett notions are designed with some of Kaffe’s signature colors and fabric patterns, from Millifiore to Row Flowers, and they will add color and fun to everyone’s sewing room. If you wish to collect them all, then you can maybe purchase these exclusive items at a BERNINA dealer near you.
This is your chance to win a b05 ACADEMY or one of four Kaffe Fassett surprise bundles. All you need to do is subscribing to the newsletter, finding the letters and entering the keyword before November 27, 2022!
Signed Up after 2nd of November?
You still have a chance to find out the keyword, even if you have missed some of the hidden letters in the previous Newsletters. The last Newsletter will include a hint, which helps you to guess the keyword correctly with the remaining letters. The chance to guess correctly might be smaller, but you can still get lucky!

Dear Ramona,How is the prize draw of the BERNINA Blog Newsletter Give Away?
Dear James,
I was away last week, but rest assured, the announcement will come! We have to wait for all the winners to get back to us after being notified by email. Thank you for your patience!
Kind regards, Ramona
I have continually tried to sign up and have never gotten the blog or newsletter! Probably too late for the contest but still would like to get.
Dear Barbara,
I am sorry to hear the registration did not work. I will add you manually to make sure you will recieve the newsletter in the future. And there will be more Blog Newsletter Give Aways to come, so you will have a chance another day! 🙂
Kind regards, Ramona
Dear Barbara,
My collegue just found your info in our system, your sign up for the BERNINA Blog Newsletter was successful and you should recieve the first Blog Newsletter during this week. It is too late for this contest, but there will be more coming in the future!
Kind regards, Ramona
I went through my past emails and I do not have the NOV 2 blog. I have NOV 11, 17 & 23, could you please send me the missing email? Thank you.
Dear Deidre,
I have just sent you the Newsletter of Nov 2. You can still enter today, since we will draw the winners tomorrow. Good Luck!
Kind regards, Ramona
I only received blog newsletter on November 2, 11, and 17 please can you send me the missing ones for November thank you
Dear Monica,
Yes, I can send you the missing one. Is it to the same email adress as you use for the BERNINA Blog?
I’ve been signed up and cannot download the free patterns at one time on my iPhone I have to resubmit each time to download as I get kicked out after each download and also can’t find the letterhead on my iPhone to try and find the hidden numbers of the November to enter. Help please. I get the emails fine.
Dear Gwen,
Yes, for the monthly free pattern, everyone has to reenter their email in the subscription form in order to reach the download website. The system has to check wether you are already subscribed or not. If you are already subscribed, you will not subscribe a second time, it will just forward you to the free pattern download. In regards to the hidden letters, do you have an option to view the emails on a computer? Or can you open the picture on your iPhone and zoom in?
I have subscribed several times to the newsletter and to date have not received any. This is very frustrating
Dear Hasinah,
I will contact you directly via email to figure out the issue.
Kind regards, Ramona
Hi Bernina- I signed up to do the Bernina Blog Newsletter Give Away before it started so I got the Nov. 2 Blog Newsletter. But, I did not get the second Bernina Blog newsletter this week. What should I do to get it before this second week ends? Thanks!
Dear Maile,
No worries, depending on the workload of the week, the Newsletter does not always come out on the same day. It will be sent today. Should you not recieve it in the next 24 hours, let me know!
Kind regards, Ramona
I have only signed up today
I have only signed up now, so do not have the first blog newsletter from 2 November…. how do I access this newsletter once I’ve signed up?
Dear May,
You won’t be able to access the newsletter from last week, but you only missed 2 out of several. For new subscribers who are in the same situation just like you, there will be a tip in the last Newsletter which for sure will help you to puzzle it together, even if you are missing the first few letters.
Kind regards, Ramona
My retirement gift (to myself) was a new sewing machine. I’m looking forward to sewing when I actually have time.
Thanks you for your email , it gives me some inspiration for next project xx
I am really excited to learn about bernina
I look forward to receiving the Bernina blog newsletter each week and really like the addition of the icons for the different categories – Bernina continually improves!
Dear Sallie,
Happy to hear you love the little splash of color the categories bring!
Does the competition include this blog as well;ie.the letter S
Dear Yasmin,
No, the S in the example of this article is not a part of the keyword. Only the letters found in the actual Newsletters count 🙂
Kind regards, Ramona

Does the new extra large embroidery hoop fit the Bernette Deco 70
Dear Maggie,
The large embroidery hoop is fantastic, but BERNINA embroidery hoops do not fit on bernette machines and vice versa.
Kind regards, Ramona
HI there, I am looking for a storage system for my Bernina Bobbins. Something that will hold more than what is offered in the Bernina accessory box and those little bobbin cylinders. Any ideas?
Dear Carol,
Yes, depending on which machine and spools you have, you can either search on google for a BERNINA Jumbo Spool Box like this one:
Or contact your nearest dealer and ask if he has a box like that. Some boxes are filled with empty spools, but since you say you need more space, you might prefer an empty one. You can find your nearest dealer here: http://www.bernina.com/dealersearch
Kind regards, Ramona
Exciting!
What fun! Would be astonished if I was lucky enough to win anything – but I’m looking forward to participating anway.
Dear Jan,
At least there is a small chance, so I wish you good luck!
