Carrie Wells is a BERNINA enthusiast.  She loves the technology and innovations that come with BERNINA machines and software, and feels there are no boundaries when creating garments, quilts, pillows, or any other project.  Carrie began sewing at a young age and decided it was something that she wanted to do for a living.  She set up a Web site to sell her wares and when she realized that she needed a new machine with greater capabilities, she went to a local BERNINA Dealer.  Carrie fell in love with the machines and began selling BERNINAs, first in Houston and then in California, where she became a top seller of BERNINA machines.
