    I think if you go out on the Bernina website you will find classes on line...you will love this machine, I haven't read all the comments, I have a BL and have worked on the Bernina's at the shop I work at...i think the front loading bobbin is great don't have to move my hoop when I run out, the BSR is awesome it's a stitch regulator for free motion quilting. You can also get free designs for the embroidery off the website. if you want i can PM you a list of other websites that have free embroidery designs.

    I have a Bernia 200 and 730. They are wonderful and you will love the embroidery. I will help you if you want to email me personally at [email protected]. Put Bernina Help in the message area. I am working today at my job but will gladly help you if I can.

    that embroidery module is the best... I was so excited the other day whe I made a fleece throw for a friend of mine. The one where you just tie the ends. Well WhenI was all done. It was purple camo, it looked plain. So I got out the module and went to work... I put a RED rose and the words maggie on it .... Wow did that ever look great. It was so fun.. I do not have enough hours in the day to create what I really want to . Whomever has one,they are sooooo much fun.

    Make getting to the classes a priority. The ones I had were great.

    I believe you will love it once you get over the "fear".

    I purchased a Bernina 240 about a year ago and love it. It does not have the features that you have but I have a Babylock embroidery machine etc on and on. Want to work up a trade?

    Blessings,

    Sharon

    Go online to the Bernina site and they have lots of online classes that can help you familiarize yourself. I love both my Berninas.
