I tried posting before but was having problems with my internet and it gave me an error, so I don't think it went through. Sorry if this is a repost!

My new-to-me Bernina 1005 arrived today! Yay! My 2.5 year old Singer T&S has been nothing but grief and is thisclose to not working full stop. But I'm not going to rant about that! I've wanted a Bernina for sooooo long and now I have one at last!

I've named her Matilda! She's my new best buddy! I'm AMAZED at how quiet and smooth she runs. We're going to get a lot of quilting done, I just know it!
