Pamella's Place

Dear Sewing Friends,

Having just returned from Steckborn, Switzerland, home of the Bernina factory, I can hardly wait to share the excitement over. Please take a look at "What's New" in order to have a peek. You can see, from the picture below, that I could not contain my excitement! We were treated like royalty by our hosts, Bernina of America and Bernina International, headed by Martin Favre and H.P. Ueltschi.

As "Dr.Phil" and I were winging our way back to the USA production of the amazing new 830E's had already shifted into high gear in Steckborn. It is amazing to think that every Bernina machine is hand assembled and put through an extensive set of checkpoints before it is boxed and shipped. What pride we saw exhibited by every person working in the factory! While we know that there will always be new machines in development by every sewing machine company, it is well-known that the most care is given to the development of the Bernina products. This particular machine series has been in development for 8 years! Bernina remains the only family-owned sewing machine manufacturer.

Because you have each contributed to our trip to Switzerland, I hope that you will enjoy the following pictures. I hope to have a complete album available in the store very soon. Also, we will be holding several "Swiss Celebrations" in the coming months. You will be notified by email if we have your address on file. These celebrations will give you the opportunity to come in and touch and experience the new machines, served up with Swiss chocolate! Pamella's Place is expecting to have a machine in the store toward the latter part of September! This, too, is one of the bonus gifts of having qualified for the Swiss trip.

You can also look forward to some very special financing offers so that you can take delivery on a new Bernina 830E. Again, please supply us with your email address so that we can give you minute-to-minute updates on the arrival of these magical machines!

Looking forward to sharing the excitement...

Pamella
