On another forum earlier today somebody posted some pictures from the Kansas City roll out of the new Bernina series 8 machines. I checked them out and the machine is "Large" to say the least. It has a very big screen on the front of it and a truly big hoop for embroidery. I think she said it had air needle threading and bobbin thread status read out, along with other bells and whistles to numerous to mention. It does notlook like any other Bernina that i have seen, and represents a new style direction for Bernina. I went back, to the blog spot to get the url so I could post it here for all to see, but Bernina had clamped down on the blogger and told her to take the pictures down until after monday. She unfortunately complied before I could post the url, so it will remain a mystery until monday. Oh yes, the price is $10,000. Sorry about that. I don't think I will rush down to the bank just yet.
