BERNINA Corporate Blog -Dear BERNINA blog readers
On behalf of the whole BERNINA team and all BERNINA bloggers, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 🙂
We would like to thank you for your loyalty and your interest in all the contents of the BERNINA blog. We are very pleased that you take the opportunity to read and write here!
2017 was an eventful year for BERNINA and the BERNINA Blog. We have launched new products, such as the embroidery software BERNINA Toolbox, there was a new embroidery alphabet to collect, and many nice projects were published in our community area. I would like to point out our two Quilt-Alongs, which are both very successful – The Crazy Colours Mystery Quilt by Sylvia and the Triangle Quilt Along by Brigitte. These Quilt-Alongs inspire many blog readers to start patching and quilting, which is awesome.
Thank you very much for participating in this eventful year as readers, contributing with comments, project pictures, Facebook-Likes and Pinterest-Shares. We hope that you will also visit the blog next year and stick with us! 2018 will be a very special year: starting in January we will celebrate the 125th anniversary of our company and will offer you a whole series of “golden” sewing, embroidery and patchwork instructions. It will be just great!

PS: The BERNINA team will be on holiday between December 23, 2017 and January 3, 2018. If you have any questions about the Advent calendar or the lottery, we will not be able to answer them until January 3, 2018. Thank you for your understanding.
I love all the different ways to include both embroidery & sewing to decorate for the holidays. Bernina and the Holidays are a perfect match!
Beautiful Bernia’s Are the best.
I love my 440 quilters addition. I would like a machine that I can take with me everywhere and that I can teach my grandchildren the joy of sewing on a Bernina.
I love my smart Bernina, it really is so sweet, it makes my sewing SO much better and fixing things a treat. A little sister sewing machine, would really suit me well, as then my sewing could move about, for classes, lessons and retreats
It is just a dream come true having such a oerfepe sewing machine. Happy holidays everyone.
I deserve to receive this gift box prize because I have not only been a very loyal, dedicated Bernina machine owner, but also an award-winning dealer in the U.S. I have owned an 830 Record, 930, 1230, 1630, 150, 180E, 200E, 730E, B830LE, and B880 PLUS; 234, 1300MDC serger; DesignerPlus software V4-8.1; and DesignWorks software and accessories. As a retired dealer, I continue to share my knowledge and expertise with consumers online and continuously promote the Bernina brand. I plan to die with my “Bernina Boots” on!
I would LOVE to take part in the raffle! I desperately need a new machine because of my ever-growing list of UFO’s! I’ve never owned a Bernina before, I’m 71, and I need a magnificent machine to help me try to finish them before I die – or turn 100, whichever comes first! ?
Would love to be part of this raffle and why would I love to win it is I love my Bernina 1130 which I saved up for and purchased as a 21st Birthday present to myself. It has been a very good machine and we have made many things over the years starting with my wedding dress through to lots of clothes, quilts and dancing costumes. So I think it’s time to let it have a well deserved semi retirement as I don’t think it can fully retire just yet.
Would love to be included in your draw, I love my “Nina” and I’ve been really very very good this year and made lots of advent calendars for each of my grandchildren and godchildren and other seasonal goodies for friends and family 🙂 ……. honest. Happy Christmas to you all at Bernina and keep on sewing.
I would like to take part in this raffle but I can’t sday why I deserve it over anyone else. I will not be doing anything this Christmas as my husband is incapacitated after having a fall and hurtinghis knee. I will have my hands full looking after him but it would be nice to get some special treats that I haven’t been able to go out for. Actually nice is too mild a word it would be such a blessing.
Sewing is my saviour. My 2 Berninas are 10 years old or older.
As I endorse BERNINA-U to friends.
I would like to be able to continue using BERNINA-U. Thank You
I have a Bernina 780 since it was realeased a new one would be great.
Love my Bernina stitches beautifully. My first Bernina was a 200.
Doris.

I love my Bernina, it is my best friend. To have a new one would help me do all the sewing I have to do in the New Year.
The treats sound so good be fun to win the gifts. I have had many Bernina’s through the years my first machine was the 1530 seem to always update them. bernina’s are wonderful Machines.
Yes, I do so want to be a part of your raffle. I would feel so blessed to win your lovely items from your 24th advent calendar. It is such a wonderful time of the year. Love Bernina so much!
I love Bernini sewing machines. I am on my third one…..upgrades . Your machines are the best on the market
..
Who doesn’t love snacks while they are sewing?
I would love to win the gift basket as I know Swizz products are good quality . I would share with an old friend who hasn’t much money and recently returned from living in Switzerland for many years.
Wow what a lovely gift box . I’d love to win it because my sewing has been on hold for a couple of months while me and hubby play Santa and his Mrs around our areas for charity etc so had no time for myself .
dear Bernina
was si thtilled to revive my Betnina 790 last year of my husband Sewing has lifted my spirits here in Saudi Arabia We have a wounderful Bernina dealer here !! I even managed to purchase the Golden Foot and my dealer gifted me the mug so don’t feel left out of the 125year celebration
we gave a ruler class coming up in the new year and a few work shops … I only transport my 790 fir special lessons a small machine would be handy … fingers crossed …
Merry Christmas and a prosperous new year
Gappy sewing everyone
I have a wonderful Bernina 790 plus but I am disabled and cannot carry it downstairs let alone to training at CCB Sewing in Rochester or one of their weekend retreats. A Bernina 215 would be ideal for this
I would love to win another Bernina and then I could gift my old Bernina 830 to my youngest grand daughter so she can continue in the family tradition of sewing.
I deserve the goodies because I have been very good all year x
I have been sewing since I was 7 years old, in the Second World War, using the scraps from any needlewoman to make doll’s clothes. My Bernina is now nearly 40 years old and my youngest granddaughter is 7 years old, and, in her own words, “ever since you showed me how to sew I have been fascinated with sewing” . I long to teach her more.
I would love to have a new Bernina Sewing machine, the companies reputation inspires me to upgrade to one if these machines, I would love to create many quilts, clothes and household items to enhance my life and those around me.
I would love to win this raffle because I love to try new things. Everything in the picture looks so yummy!
