I went yesterday to a cute little quilt shop in Vegas that I had not been to before. I asked about the Featherweight club that they have. And told her about my new FW and the tension problem. She showed me what I had been doing wrong and how to fix it. It was such a simple thing. I showed my husband what she had said and we fixed it, and now she sews like a dream. I ordered some Singer lube and some new rubber cushions for her and some bobbins.
My husband now sees the value in these little beauties and keeps telling me to bid on others on Ebay. I guess I should start putting up auctions for all the stuff around here that I got to sell on Ebay so I would have extra to spend on more sewing machines.
