Yesterday I got back home (Ricky is in the sky as I write), from Consumer BU. It is safe to say that the guests were pretty much Bernina lovers who wanted to see first hand what all the veiled secrecy has been about regarding the new machine. Not only did they get to see the machine first hand (it has over 70 exclusive features) but they also got to meet the heartbeat of the company. Far left to right: Mr Dryer (he is currently running the whole show in Switzerland), Mr. Ueltschi (he is Mr. Bernina himself), myself and Mr. Favre(he is President of Bernina USA - and the person who said yes to underwriting the jump start of  the Quilt Show). We learned that it took 6 years to build this machine and over 100 engineers. Bernina listened to us and built a machine designed by us - for us - very cool! To learn more about the 8 series, go here. Also, it was GREAT meeting so many TQS members - Thank you for coming!
