After finishing piecing a row of quilt blocks I checked the stitch count on the BERNINA 560 and it's just over 1.5 million stitches since the last service. That was just over five years ago. That's not a lot of stitches when 3 million per year is average expected. I clearly have not been doing… Continue reading Welcome to 2026
