Mastering Your Bernina #4 - Supply List


Mastering Your Bernina #4 - Stitch Recipes
Diane Roubal

    So, you have your new Bernina machine with all those neat stitches. Now what do you do with it all?

    Mastering Your Bernina #4 is a class for playing with all those stitches and doing what is called Stacking stitches to make decorative combinations to embellish clothing, pillowcases, placemats, and much more.

    Starting in August 2007, MYB4 classes will be held alternating months on the 4th Saturday and 4th Friday of the month (Saturdays in August, Fridays in September). We will do 2 to 3 different Stitch Recipes. Every two months new Recipes will be presented so you can come back again and again to collect new recipes -- start a notebook to store your stitches and samples to refer back to when you need stitches to embellish a project.

    There will be Recipes for all Bernina Models from the 210 to the 730. The class is free but there are supplies you need to bring and you need to sign up for class.
