      Lorchen, You'll love it when you get to that retirement. I just retired in January and bought my 830 LE a month or so before. Every morning I wake up sooo happy and I play many hours in my studio now. It's an amazing machine and I have so much more to learn about it, which makes it interesting. It has a bit of a learning curve, but well worth it.

        Me too Betty Jo. It was my retirement present to myself. It is a truly awesome machine. My girlfriend who lives in the USA & I refer to ours as BB (Big Bertha). BB is a joy to work with each day.
        Enjoy Lorchen. Retirement rocks!

          Lorchen, by the time you retire in 2014 there will be another newer model super duper Bernina and then we will all be jealous. I hope I will still be around to hear all about it.

                Great banner, Lori! On my list of 'must do' is a cover for my 630. Right now I just toss a towel over it when I'm not using it, because I don't want to put it away everym time.
