Lookit What I Got!!!

After much searching over a series of months, models, and dealers, I have finally made a sewing machine decision. And after a love-at-first-use test drive, I brought it home today:

When unpacked, this glorious box looks even more glorious:

I never thought it would happen. I have a new sewing machine! It’s a Bernina 440QE! It is lovely and beautiful and sturdy and smooth. I am officially in love.

Stay tuned for a few posts on my search experience, as well as more info on the machine itself. I hope to do a lot of mini feature reviews so that others can benefit from some info out on the Interwebs that I was unable to find throughout my search. Yippee!

    In Hebrew I would say (should have said earlier tonight!) “teed-chad-shee,” which stems from the term for renewal and newness, but means “congratulations on your purchase.”
