I agree....WOW.
I wonder what the "true bernina enthusiasts" here will think of this?? It makes me want to go and check one out!!
This new machine is a BIG departure from the older line isn't it??

There is lots of discussion in the Bernina u thread.

The machine won't be clear, fb says that is just for display

Interesting. Looks like a model to show what the insides are like.

A see through sewing machine. What will they think of next???

It has to be a demo model to show the insides. But, it is way cool anyway.

Quilting is relaxing to me. I love to play with fabrics, patterns and colors.

Thanks for clearing that up. I didn't see that on FB and I'm not involved in the other Bernina thread.

Oh, look, there are circuit boards inside...

Phooey-- I'd like to see the springs, gears, motors, pulleys, and cams. It's a sewing machine,not a sewing computer...

And a nice closeup of the motor's specifications.

My bernina manual actually calls mine (430) a sewing computer...


This reminds me of the see through phone I had in middle school. It had neon lights that came on when it rang.

And this, my friends, is the perfect reply to those uninformed critics out there who believe a Bernina is not made any different to low end plastic models for $200 they see in Walmart or other chain stores!
Quite a bit of metal in there and an huge amount of electronics- what a work of art. I'd like them to pull apart their inexpensive machines and compare...ROTFL!

I would LOVE to have one of these transparent machines to show students in class, in the meantime I will make do with a photo. Truly they are computers that sew.
