I love this new website!! I've been a basic member for a long time, but I just discovered this Forum!!! DUH I sew with a Bernina 730, 830, and 1300MDC serger. I've been a garment/heirloom sewist for YEARS and have just started quilting--and love it!! I'm looking forward to learning new things from all of you!!
