    Hi Guys,

    Does anybody know when this series is going to be released in the States? We won't get them until mid August.... word on the street is that they will launch the range at the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham (Aug 11th - 14th Aug).

    It would be good to know what they have changed before I go to the FoQ!

    Hugs

    What's the scoop on the new 500? I've not heard anything.

    Haven't heard anything about Bernina, but Pfaff is coming out with a new machine. To be available August 12. Have already received two emails from them to build up anticipation.

    Bernina University is next week in San Antonio so I imagine there will be word out after that when dealers know more.

    I wish I would have known back in February that a new series was being launched because I probably would have held off on the purchase of a new machine until I knew more about the 500 series. Knowing my luck they're going to have exactly what I would have wanted to purchase now that it's too late. :P
