I have the Berninia 630 with the embroider module and the BSR plus the alking foot. I really think if you can take just one thing at a time, since you can't get to where lessons are, you will be surprised what you can do. The fabric place where I got my machines classed and while the next place is about 45 minutes from me, I basically house bound. But you may want to consider putting a small notice in your local community paper asking if there is anyone out there that could possibly help you with lessons. I have two people that taught at the shop and I stayed in touch with them over time. So even now, after almost three years with my machine, I still will call or send an e-mail for help with something. Please don't give up on it or stick it in the closet. It's a very, very worth while machine.
