New here and question about Bernina
Hi everyone! I'm Amy and I'm new to the board and from the Dallas, TX area. I have experience machine quilting, mainly before I had kids since my life has been so busy since then! But, I'm wanting to get back into it. My mom gave me a used Bernina Artista 200 with every accessory imaginable and I have no idea how to use all of the features on it! So, my question is, should I trade in at a Bernina store for a newer machine that has the types of features that I need for machine quilting, like the 5 series, or should I just take lessons on the machine I have… are there quilters out there with the artista 200 that have made good use of it. I don't want to get a horrible trade in value for it and then end up spending a lot extra on a new one. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Amy
