Do you have a stash of metallic, pearl cotton, heavy weight, thin weight and other threads in between that you are terrified to use? Fear not! Gayle from BERNINA of Naperville will help you tame your trepidation and have you making beautiful projects with it in no time. Gayle has tips, needle suggestions, samples and solutions for practically any thread you want to use on your one of a kind projects.
Just a few minutes spent with Gayle and you’d be shocked to learn that ‘creativity’ is in fact not her middle name. She simply oozes with it. It has fueled her passion in so many areas including all things sewing, writing, theatre, Cosplay and trapeze to name just a few.
In 2005, she opened her own BERNINA store, Strawberry & Rhubarb in Willliston, Vermont. It wasn’t long before BERNINA Corporate came calling and she sold her successful store to become a BERNINA Sales Manager and eventually the Marketing Manager of Promotions and Sponsorships.
Loaded with tons of experience and loads of creativity later, she and her creative cohort Chris Donahue are co-owners of BERNINA of Naperville! If you can’t make it to her store, you can see Gayle in action by visiting the BERNINA of Naperville YouTube Channel @berninaofnaperville to learn, laugh and find inspiration.
