BERNINA UNIVERSITY!!!

We Can't Wait to See You! Event: Exclusive 3-day NEW Owner's Retreat (Jan 2025) Date: Tuesday, January 28- Thursday, January 30, 2025

I just returned from Bernina University!!!

As I shared on Instagram:

A very special TY to the team at Bernina University for their collaboration creating projects forcing me wayyyyy out of my comfort zone on the Bernina 990 sewing machine. We spent hour after hour manipulating stitch work in ways I never could have- without their guidance and direction. By the end of the owners retreat I knew I still had a great deal more to learn… but I had learned far more than I ever knew my machine could do! All in attendance hope for a part 2 (just not out of Chicago in January!) #bernina990 #berninaownersretreat2025

Our first project was name tags both to wear 

and to add to the wall. 

(Alas, I forgot to take a pic of the wall...)

For 2 and a half days we manipulated stitches

 and created designs within our 990's

 and stitched them out.
