BERNINA of America, the premier manufacturer of sewing, embroidery and quilting machines, is pleased to announce that Kramer’s Sew & Vac, a BERNINA Dealer in Cincinnati, Ohio, will host a Sew-In event on Saturday, September 30 from 11:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. at the store located at 9907 Montgomery Road. Attendees are invited to make kennel quilts for adoptable animals, using the BERNINA 790 (B 790), the BERNINA 215 Simply Red (B 215 Simply Red), and BERNINA 3 Series machines. Additionally, the SPCA adoption truck, carrying a number of furry friends looking for homes, will be on-site. The kennel quilts will be donated to the Sharonville SPCA. Dog and cat food and pet accessories are also welcome and can be dropped off at the store. Local quilt shops donated batting, filler and fabric to make the kennel quilts.

“Last year we made 50 kennel quilts for the Sharonville SPCA and we hope to make at least that many again at our upcoming Sew-In event,” said Anitra Gardner, owner of Kramer’s Sew & Vac. “This year marks our 70th year in business and we’d like to celebrate by inviting the community into the store to provide a comfy quilt for one of the many adoptable pets here on-site or back at the SPCA. We hope you’ll join us in this great event.”
The B 790 is a sewing and embroidery combo machine with a 7-inch high-resolution color touch screen and programmable foot control, and comes standard with the BERNINA Stitch Regulator (BSR), which ensures stitches of the exact same length when free-motion sewing. The B 790 is also equipped with the one-of-a-kind Stitch Designer, which allows users to draw their own stitches on the touch screen and in one click, convert them into a stitch pattern. Additionally, it features 554 stitches, including newly designed sideways motion stitches, 270 embroidery designs, and eight embroidery alphabets. The B 790 also comes with the embroidery module that accommodates the Maxi Hoop for a large embroidery area. For more information, visit www.bernina.com/7series.
