My dear Bernina - INJURED!!
#41
Took my FW on Tues sewing for Victoria's Quilts. Told husband to leave in car because Wed I have the charity dresses group. NO! He goes to bring it down stairs with the box sitting on luggage carrier. Drops/ tips over goes down few steps with him trying to grab it. FW survived --used it all day Wed with no problems. when we opened the case the only thing was the thread holder had moved.
This was machine from mom which I learnt to sew on at 8 yrs old. thanks be to GOD for end result.
Hope your Bernina is cheaply fixable.

Tried super glue many times but no such luck with that. Now I just use a coffee mug for a thread stand.

I have an older Bernina and years ago I had my teenage daughter take it down stairs for me. The latch on the case came undone and the machine fell out. The side where the light is cracked but other than that no problems. I still use that machine and it runs great!!!!!
