Bernina 931 Pros and Cons
My SIL has first dibs on a Bernina 931 at an estate sale. Since she doesn't sew, she wanted to know if I want her to buy it for me. I know nothing about the machine except that it's in running order and perhaps about 20 years old. The lady who owned it did not quilt, but was a prolific sewer of clothing. What price should I pay? What questions should I ask about it? If anyone on QB has one of these machines, what are the pros and cons? Does the Bernina 931 have a serpentine stitch on it? I would appreciate any input you wonderful ladies can give me before I decide whether or not to buy this machine. I don't know what the price will be, but I know it will be fairly low (less than $400) according to my SIL. I currently sew on a Pfaff Expression 2036 and am fairly happy with it, but thought it might be nice to own another machine as well.
