Bernina minimatic 707
I have a fancy to find a vintage Bernina but there is very few for sell in my area. Finally, one appear on my local craiglist and I'm supposed to go see it this afternoon. It's a 707 minimatic and it seems in excellent cosmetic shape. I found very few informations on the web about this machine; how it compare to, let say, a Bernina 730 record? Is the stitch quality supposed to be as good? What should I check to be sure it`s in adequate working order?
Not that I really need another machine... I already have a Singer 15-91 and a nice Vicking Tribute 140C. But I quilt and sew clothes for my children (often in the same period), so it seems I'm always changing the setting, the needle, the foot. I was a huge gain of time to get the Singer and let it set for piecing...
If I get this machine, I will also need an advise about where to hide another sewing machine... my husband find that 2 machine is already too much!
