    I tried posting before but was having problems with my internet and it gave me an error, so I don't think it went through. Sorry if this is a repost!

    My new-to-me Bernina 1005 arrived today! Yay! My 2.5 year old Singer T&S has been nothing but grief and is thisclose to not working full stop. But I'm not going to rant about that! I've wanted a Bernina for sooooo long and now I have one at last!

    I've named her Matilda! She's my new best buddy! I'm AMAZED at how quiet and smooth she runs. We're going to get a lot of quilting done, I just know it!

    I am sure you will love your new old machine. I love all my berninia's. That one looks like a real workhorse.

    Enjoy your new Bernina. She looks like she's up to any task.
