Introducing Betsy

So you are all probably wondering who Betsy is? Well she is my sewing machine, yes I know why would it have a name? Well she is getting on in years, temperamental, loved very much and we spend a lot of time together.

Anyway Betsy is a Bernina record electronic sewing machine. 

She can:

• Over-lock
• Darn
• Do basic and fancy stitches
• Embroider. 

Yes very fancy I know for a beginner sewer. I got this sewing machine from my very kind boyfriend's Granddad. It belonged to his wife and when she passed it was sitting there unused, so when I'd borrowed the mother in laws machine so much I decided to ask for one for Christmas, and when I told him what I planed to get he offered Betsy to me, and we've been together ever since. 

So far she has had; a new light bulb, new needles and a service will be coming up very soon. Yes this is one pampered sewing machine.
