Deb, my poinsettias went out on Tuesday instead of Monday. I had some major problems with my machine that I never experienced before. It needs to go to the doctor as I was unable to get it working right. It skipped stitches terribly. The zig zag was awful - the buttonhole didn't even form the shape and let's put it this way, even the straight stitch skipped like crazy. It worked great while piecing - I have know clue what happened. I changed threads and needles, oh so many different types of bobbins, cleaned and cleaned it, oiled it and even daringly took the cover off.
I am truly embarrassed by the end result. If anyone decides that they'd like to mail back my block to me. I would be happy to repair it (after my machine gets fixed) and reimburse you for mailing it back to me. I've just had too many tears over this.
