Congrats on your new Bernina. I have an older one that I bought new in 1984 it is a 930. I have loved every minute that I have used this jewel. I had a Singer golden touch (still do)that I bought new and sewed on for years, making my children's clothes and all of my wardrobe, but so wanted a Bernina. I put my little jewel on layaway and couldn't wait until I got it paid for. My Bernina has more than paid for itself. I keep it oiled and cleaned and haven't had any trouble with it yet. Keep your fingers crossed that I never do. I have my Singer and two FW's for backups, however I hate to say I haven't sewn on my Singer Golden Touch since I bought my Bernina. I probably should sell it, but I just hate to as it was my first sewing machine and sort of like a family member.
Wishing you years of wonderful sewing on your new machine. Be sure and show us pics. and what you make on it. I just know you will love it.
