My husband strangely stopped at an estate sale on his lunch hour. He Never does anything like that. He called me at work and asked me if I wanted a Bernina. Well, of course I did. I snuck out of work to meet him. It was a model 1120 from the 1980's. I sat at it and ran a scrap of fabric through. Worked fine! It came in a fine console oak cabinet fitted to the machine. It has the mechanized platform to move the machine out of sight. The cabinet had multiple drawers filled with over 20 sewing feet. Dozens of needle packs, scissors, walking foot, an extra foot pedal. Also included in the deal was a library of Bernina books and newsletters regarding that model, plus a carrying case. Price...$250.00 complete!! We still don't know what possessed him to stop at that sale. Several weeks later, we found out that the machine belonged to our dry-cleaner's mom. He is the sweetest man and said that it made him happy to know who got his mother's machine!
