Surprise...


The Cowboy SURPRISED me with a new

sewing machine...


Bernina 440 Quilters Edition





This machine was made in 2007...

It is just like NEW...

only 32 hours on the machine...

how wild is that !





2007 was the 75 year Anniversary of Bernina





I love the large, white extension table...





I also like the sliding speed control

and the blue on/off button...





I played with the BSR foot and

even though I have been free motion quilting

for over 30 years I actually liked it !





It came with a dozen feet and most of them

are my favorites...





I have made it most of the way through the

manual and the machine operates the same

as my other Berninas, so not a lot to learn there...





180 Stitches...





I feel so lucky to have this machine and

I want to take good care of it so....




The very first thing I stitched with it is

this sewing machine cover...







The front has a large zipper pocket

and both sides have handles and pockets.

This should keep my new baby dust-free.

Thank You Cowboy!
