Default test drove the new Bernina 830 LE

Bernina has launched their new limited edition (only 4,000 made) 830 and were offering 3 hour test drives to make an embroidered pillow. What an AMAZING machine. I currently have a 12 yr old 150 QE that I love and have made many a complex quilt on. The biggest selling point to me was the wide throat, as it is a struggle to wrestle the big quilts through my standard throat. The class was a lot of fun, so if you have a chance, I highly recommend taking it for a spin. No, I won't be buying on this year. Maybe when my car is paid off!
