I agree you are past the "hard" part ... you took that deep breath and tackled it head on... you conquered your fears :thumbup: Hope the shop gets your baby fixed quickly :lol: And when you go pick her up ask for some guidance before you leave

What luck! Anyway--- there you go--- my progress --- zero.

By this point, you'll be a pro at working it when it's "healthy!"

My reply to the Quilt Cut 2 post is like what you did with your machine. I couldn't get accurate cuts, got frustrated and didn't use it. I finally talked to a vendor and we discovered that my size guide wasn't right. She is sending me a new one. If I hadn't decided to voice my frustration the system would still be unused and a big waste. All this time I thought it was me that was the problem. :? :?

Glad to hear you tackled it and found out IT had the problem. I took a class on a Gammil long arm last week and it has the front load bobbin. It's such an advantage. I bet you'll find the same on your new Bernina. Have lots and lots of fun!!

You got a great machine. I have the 630 with BSR and Embroidery. I did not touch the Embroidery stuff for about a year until I could get a class and learn how to use it. Come to think of it, I waited on the BSR until I could take a class too.
I like the front load bobbin, you can change it out with a quilt on the top of the machine, and it's easier to pop out.

Momwood, I understand your frustration. I also bought a new Bernina 440 and have been struggling with it. I took a couple of simple classes and I am not having much luck with all the features. Everyone tells me that It will come just keep playing with it. I would love to have the information for the Yahoo bernina group. Thanks, Karole
