Video review Bernina 530 ...
I bought a Bernina 530 .. its a really nice machine, but the bed and lack of an auto thread cutter was a deal breaker for me. I decided to sell the machine.

My way. 4 patch.
I made enough 4 patch blocks to make two quilts. The second one needed to be mine. I made the first one to look like the one in the book. Why do that? Awhile ago I bought some fabric with roses on it that I was in love with but was afraid to use. I decided it was time. Here is how it came out - What do you think? Does the floral overpower the blocks? Is that a bad thing (if it does)? For me, the blend is perfect. I am dreaming about the bed on the porch of my childhood camp. It was iron and sometimes had a hornets nest somewhere inside. That is the truth! But, it was on a screen porch near the lake. I loved it there. And, this quilt is now part of the memory even though it never was. Here is the first quilt.
Red and White Star Quilt -
I made this quilt from about a 50 % blend of recycled and new fabrics. It is a queen size with a 100% cotton batting. And, the Dog - is my George.
Great review. You should have waited until September for Bernina to release their new 750 series with the 13" harp. I am totally upgrading from a Janome 6600 to the 750 with embroidery capabilities and the BSR. Also, all three models have the 9mm stitch width and thread cutter. From what I heard, Bernina took all the features of their 500 and 800 series and combined the ones that people asked for the most into the 700 series. I am so excited about getting mine by the end of the year. FYI...fellow gay male quilter here!
