I dread handing them over to the service guy because I never know what I get back and he is the only one who can do chech ups on my machine. It's very annoying getting it back with the same problems you brought it in for, or sometimes even worse!Nina Lise@Mrs Moenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04943912994076653225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-54853265956149232952011-10-18T18:55:33.359-04:002011-10-18T18:55:33.359-04:00My goodness!

If I ever finish it I will call it "Going Nowhere Fast.". Right now it is just going nowhere. I have coveted that Juki machine for years. I was machine-less most of the summer. I hope your fate turns out better than mine. I m still trying to get my quilting mojo back.Tarynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03455236914872943577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-15037896856892645332011-10-18T12:02:54.962-04:002011-10-18T12:02:54.962-04:00Dang that is a bummer to have so many out of commi...Dang that is a bummer to have so many out of commission at once. My featherweight originally sewed super slow & I got a new motor and it is much improved. Supposedly the chemicals used to clean up old motors and get them going are outlawed these days so a new motor is the safest fix. Hope you get one back soon!badlandsquiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05518085440075521383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-90781685407008716082011-10-18T11:55:34.524-04:002011-10-18T11:55:34.524-04:00I can't imagine taking 35 years to make a quil...I can't imagine taking 35 years to make a quilt, lol.<br />I would work more on mine if it didn't kill my fingers, I tend to poke myself constantly, so have to break from it.<br /><br />DebbieWoolenSailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08621977477193550261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-20143416869703017152011-10-18T11:45:19.715-04:002011-10-18T11:45:19.715-04:00When your fingers get sore from holding a needle a...When your fingers get sore from holding a needle and you want to go back to a machine...<br /><br />http://www.april1930s.com/html/how_to_thread_a_singer_feather.htmlMonicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10630536302714072900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-38011202137507682792011-10-18T11:24:08.366-04:002011-10-18T11:24:08.366-04:00yes it's a sign!
