    I am SO EXCITED! In a few hours I go to pick up my new Bernina 820 QE. I traded in my Bernina 730 E but never used the embroidery. They gave me a great deal. I just turned 71 so this is a birthday present from me to me.

    I could never really get enthusiastic or feel creative doing machine embroidery. It's just me.

    The new machine THREADS THE NEEDLE and the bobbin pokes out where I can reach it. I have been having more and more trouble with both actions.

    Well congratulations on your buy, you must be very excited, and I don't blame you! I have to say I'm a little green, I would love a Bernina.

    Looking forward to a review and seeing some of your work! :thumbup:

    You will love it! I just bought one in February and am still getting used to all of the bells and whistles. It does free motion quilting like a dream--if you practice, practice and practice some more...
