bernette 62 AIRLOCK

Floor Model

The bernette 62 AIRLOCK is the coverstitch machine of the b60 series. The automatic air threader makes threading the looper thread child's play. The machine has 4 coverstitches and 3 chainstitches and can be used for countless applications, with which different fabric types – stretchy fabrics in particular – can be sewn perfectly. The presser foot can be lowered and temporarily raised with the knee lifter, leaving both hands free to guide the fabric. The slide-on table and matching coverstitch insert increase the sewing area and provide sufficient space for large projects. Thanks to the 5 LEDs, the large working area is brightly illuminated.

When I wanted to resume garment sewing back in 2010, I found Steve’s and bought three machines. They are all still going strong. Classes with Pamela Leggett were an absolute joy – – I learned so much and had so much fun with my classmates! Steve’s was a unique place, and I’m sorry it’s closing. But I wish Steve the very very best in his “retirement“, and in in his new venture, OMC construction. Barbara E

I’ve been shopping at Steve’s for close to 30 years. I’ve bought 2 BabyLock sewing machines and a Crown Jewel longarm and many, many yards of fabric from him. Hoping he has a great retirement but so sad to see both shops closing.

Steve sold me my first machine from when he was in Lansdale, 45 years ago, and my Baby Lock & Bernina much later. You'll be missed! Enjoy the next phase of life.

What a special place operated by a wonderful guy. Not just a business owner, but a generous community-minded guy. One of a kind!

I have fond memories of kicking off my independent life at my first apartment by purchasing first necessities for my first home: an enormous personal computer from Dell and a small but fully featured computerized sewing machine from Steve's. The giant CPU and monitor and keyboard that came in the super sized cow patterned box are long gone and have been replaced 10 times over with smaller and more featured devices but my Bernina Activa 145 is still going strong as the OG sewing computer in my machine collection helping my daughter, a fine arts student in the city, complete her assignments. Steve's will always be a part of my sewing legacy and sewing life story. Best wishes in retirement!

Purchased several Janome sewing machines form the old KOP store but stopped going when the Janome line was dropped. More recently, bought several Baby Locks from Pottstown. Staff were always quite knowledgeable and let me actually try out new machines before purchase, Steve's has been a mainstay of the sewing community and will be missed by many. Enjoy your retirement!

This news breaks my heart. I became a customer when you first opened, and never bought machines or had repairs done anywhere else. Thanks for being awesome. I wish you all joy wherever the road takes you.

I am sorry to hear of your closing! All of you have always been so kind and helpful! I purchased my vacuum and sewing machine from you and your service and repairs have always been top notch!

I am wishing you happy retirement! But know you will be missed so very much!
