It was a very good day to be me!

Last Friday was a very good day to be me- I got to pick up my beautiful new BERNINA 750 QE from Lori, the owner of Ralphs Sew & Vac my local BERNINA dealer.  The perks of ambassadorship are many, let me count the ways!  I now have 10 glorious inches of throat space to move my quilt around when free motion quilting.  I now have a stitch regulator, and functions like a knee presser, automatic thread cutter, tons of decorative stitches, a 9mm wide stitch width... you name it!  So far my very favorite feature hands down though has been that extra large bobbin- I started with a 105 yard spool of thread, and filled the bobbin once, and I am just about equally out of thread and bobbin at the same time- never changing the bobbin... amazing.   That type of upgrade is a real time saver- especially when free motion quilting I HATE stopping to change/fill bobbins.  Yes indeed, I am a lucky girl to get to play with this stunning machine over the next year.  I am just starting to get to know her but stay tuned for lots more fun as we get acquainted.

here are some fun pictures of me getting to pick her up and take a quick lesson at Ralphs.
