The last day for you to bring a BERNINA for service or repair is April 6th. 


Dear Customer

If we start this announcement with “Twenty-seven years ago” or “It was not an easy decision to make” everybody would know what the gist of this letter would be.

So, I will start a different way. 

Christmas is just around the corner and we from Bernina Sewing Center wish you and your family a Merry Christmas! Enjoy the season and spend some time with family and friends. Let's be grateful for what we have! Sadly, not everybody in this world is as fortunate as most of us in this country but if we are not careful it might slip away from us faster than we think!

But then, I can't be preaching to you to spend more time with your family, and we (Debra and I) can't find the time to do it with ours unless we make some changes in our lives. 

Making changes means trading. You trade one thing against another. You must let one or several things go to gain something else. 

So almost 3 decades ago Debra and I made the decision to build a business where people can come, buy a sewing machine, get lessons on how to use it, take classes to enhance their embroidery or sewing skills, buy some quality fabrics and notions, and round this all up with a great service department. Included at no charge with this business model is meeting new people and making new friends. Friends who are here to stay on happy or not-so-happy days. 


So, in 2024 we will trade our 24/7 worries on paying rent, creating new classes, decision-making on advertising, buying fabric and machines and how much of each, and the list goes on and on... against, questions like, how long we would like to stay with the grandkids? Do we want to go fishing in our pond today or go to our uncle's pond down the street? Is it time to harvest the potatoes yet? Do we split the firewood today or should we wait a few more weeks? I know these are all hard decisions to make on a 10-acre farm, but I am sure we will manage. 

If you shared in our journey over the last 30 years and spent some time and money with us, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Without you, the customer, we would not have made it. We appreciate each one of you!

There will be no new classes in 2024 as we prepare to start our new chapter!

Until we close, our time will be spent with customers who recently purchased machines and training them on how to use them. 

Please keep an eye on your email, our website, and our Facebook page if you would like to know when some of the sales start. Right now, it is business as usual. Gregor continues to do service and repairs on Bernina's only!!! 

Our last day of business will be announced at a later day but will be at the end of April or the beginning of May 2024.

Thank you again for all the support you have given us over the past years! 


Debra and Gregor
