Here's a note from textile artist Yvonne Porcella -  

My BERNINA has been a favorite for many years. Our grandchildren (we have 11) love to visit my studio and sew. As a result, each family now has their own BERNINA, purchased at conferences where I could take advantage of a discount. One grand daughter wants to take her machine to college. "My sorority sisters want to learn how to sew and make projects for pledge days." I offered to come to the sorority and teach them some of the fun stitches found on the BERNINA.

Not just our grand daughters but our grandsons have all stitched at my BERNINA. They each have made a mini quilt.
