    Default sad I can't get my machine tomorrow :(

    Just got an email from my repair guy and they will be closed saturday, sunday and monday. With hubbys new hours its hard for us to get down there since its an hour drive in good traffic. Wish they were open later then 6, most nights. Guess its another week or 2 on the old workhorse. till my baby can come home.

    At least you have a back up. I always hate it when I have my machine in for cleaning and upkeep, they say it will be 1 week and it usually ends up 2-3. Glad I got my traveling machine to use now.

    Please don't let me look at any more for inspiration, I have a list 2 sides of a notebook page long of things I want to do. Plus all the ideas my quilting girls want to learn. Just miss my major conveniences of step on the pedal and go and auto cutting and presser foot lift

    I can't help it. With the new tutorials and these forum people always posting their work I have a "have to make" and a "wanna make" list that this whole forum together couldn't complete. So try to ignore inspiration and make sure you have fresh paper on hand.

    I am really sorry you can't have your baby back yet. I do suggest taking something small with you when you pick it up to make sure it is really fit as a fiddle before you leave the shop.

    I can't believe how lost I've felt this week with a non-functioning machine! I have no back-up. I can't even get mine into the shop till Tues. after Labor Day. I've been completing other tasks that needed doing. I'm trimming those charms that were too large. I've also spent more time on the Forum. JCY
