Creativity Lives Here!

January, February, March & April 2010 Class List

             The following classes are designed for review of basic information of Bernina Sewing Machine.   Space is limited, sign up is necessary to hold your place.  The classes are free if you bought your machine from us, $10 per class if purchased elsewhere.  

                 What to do with all those Presser Feet that came with your sewing machine?  Karen will show you how they work & all the tricks that make them the most effective for your stitching.  Have you bought extras?  Bring them and we’ll cover those too.

                 We’ll work with the Utility Stitches, Selected Decorative Stitches & Computer Functions to expand your use of the machines and their capabilities beyond the basic straight stitch.  These decorative stitches add great embellishing options for your projects.

                 The Bernina Stitch Regulator, BSR, is the machine quilters’ dream!  Join Lindy to review the BSR free motion  Quilting  techniques.  Just a little review & a little practice with the BSR makes a big difference in the quality of your quilting.
