Bernina Software Sampler Class
We will be holding the Bernina Software Sampler Class in 2010! I am really looking forward to running this class and getting everyone comfortable with Bernina Artista.

 

In the class you will watch a 45 minute presentation by a Bernina Educator. The Educator will walk us through a software lesson and introduce a project showcasing the technique from the software lesson. A brief overview of the project will be presented along with tips and tricks for project completion. We will then make the project in the software program. There will not be time to sew out the project but we will have the project on hand in several stages of completion so you can see how it is supposed to look.
