I have a whole pile of machines, and the last two weeks I have needed three! The Featherweight was having problems with the thread catching in the bobbin area so it went out of town to be repaired. Then my Pfaff threw a tension fit and usually I can get it corrected, but not this time, so when I go after the Featherweight I will take the Pfaff for repair. Now I am sewing on my Babylock machine and so far it is hanging together! It's okay to have several backups!
