I
went to “Bernie school” last night to learn all about how to use my new Bernina
efficiently and effectively. The
instructor was great - I learned a lot of tips and now feel like my new machine
is an old friend. This class was about
the feet (lots of feet) and tension and how to oil and clean the machine. I also had a moment of “machine envy” for the
people who had the high-class embroidery machines in the class, but that passed
quickly because that’s really not the kind of sewing that I want to do!
I
decided to try out some of the decorative stitches today. These weren’t part of last night’s class
since that will be covered next week, but I couldn’t wait. I made a new placemat to put underneath the
machine on my sewing table. The old one
was looking pretty ratty.

I will bind it
tomorrow – another adventure on the machine.
I know I told you that she just plain p-u-r-r-r-r-s. I still love that part. So this saga will continue ….
