If you have been reading my blog
you know that I have wanted a Bernina sewing machine for a long time. I finally
bought one at CREATE in August!
Her name is Lola.
I got a great deal ($999 for a
$1,499 machine) from the local Bernina store and the company rep at the
retreat. Isn’t she is a beautiful
machine? The first time I turned
it on it made a terrible noise. I
read the manual but couldn’t determine the problem. I contacted the store and after talking to 2 different people
we finally figured it out (it was a switch up on the top by the bobbin winder).
My first training at the store isn’t
until September 27, but I have been able to sew a few straight and squiggly
lines already. Unfortunately, I
can’t figure out the automatic threader, which is one of the features that I
need most desperately! All in good
time.
Buying Lola was a dream come true
for me. Which of your dreams have
come true lately?
