    Wowzers! That's beyond my wildest dreams. What a sweet machine! Love the design on the LE. Excellent gift, be sure to praise him for it often.

    I thought all I would ever do is dream of a machine like this...he has been getting heaps of praise and thanks, let me tell you!

    And, there is an awesome custom made table/chest coming for her in June. Our Bernina dealer has a Mennonite gentleman that makes them for him. It has a drawer that will fit the embroidery module perfectly. Will keep it close at hand, but out of the dust and clutter of the sew room. He definitely will be getting lots of hugs and kisses for a long time to come! (Ummm, my DH, not the Mennonite gentleman ;) )

    Happy Birthday! I am all caught up in your excitement with you. Just blows my mind when my dh does something like this for me. Sometimes you think they aren't even thinking about it,(why would they) and then there you are. I am sure you will love the machine.

    I was just at a Bernina Educational Event yesterday at a local sewing machine dealer store, so I know what those babies cost. Woohoo...that is one nice present. You will be have so much fun with that machine.

    Next time you go to your dealer, ask them about the cutwork software and cutwork "needle" (It really is a chisel like knife you use instead of a needle). You won't believe what it will do....you won't need to ever cut out an applique again!!!! Your machine will cut out shapes, 10 layers of fabric at once. Soooo impressive. No other machine can do this...only Bernina.

    Happy Birthday!

    ♥Happy Birthday ♥

    Thanks, I will have to check it out. When you get an 830 LE, you can choose to go to a VIP Event in Chicago where you have 2 days of seminars and projects learning about the machine. Guess where DH and I are going on vacation 8-) Maybe they will show that attachment there. :-)

    Ooooo - Thanks for the posies!
