I was reading about Tula’s Bernina 770 with the extra decorative stitches and I’m thinking, “who is using these?!” I’d love to know everyone’s thoughts. And photos if you have...
I use them a lot in fact that is why I have my current machine because it has a lot of stitches my Janome didn't have. I enjoy doing strip quilting and I use the decorative stitches in place of hand quilting. I have done many quilts this way.
