    I feel your pain. My babylock died on me in January and I lost a good month waiting on the LQS to get it fixed. Since then, I have been diligent about cleaning it. And changing needles more frequently. I am so wanting a good back up machine, too. I have a few but they are so old which is why I bought Baby in the first place which was many years ago.

    Hope you can get yours back soon and in the meantime ~ plan, drool over the net or books and then plan some more.

    Maybe you should invest in a spare machine, just so you don't go into withdrawals...maybe a Featherweight cutie! They are so nice to have on hand. I hope you aren't without for long....Hugs.

    Oh Britt, so sorry to hear that. I know how you feel, I am in the same boat. My neighbor did lend me a machine but it only does straight stitch so no FMQ or zig-zag stitching on appliques. But I am getting a new machine either today or tomorrow... YIPPEE!!

    Hope your problem is a quick fix.

    That will teach you to leave her alone for a couple weeks.

    Sorry, I just couldn't help myself. I know how frustrating it is to be without your baby. Here's to a speedy recovery.
    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    A giraffe's coffee would be cold by the time it reached the bottom of his throat.
    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??

    Oh yes, I actually have a spare machine it was the one we found in the garage in a box of yardsale stuff. I have been meaning to take it get serviced and just hadn't gotten around to it! She said to call her later this week and get an update on the progress. We only have one shop here and it seems they are backed up! I plan on calling Friday to get an update.
