Finally today I got to wind a bobbin and sew a seam!! First thing to sew? It's own cover out of Batiks!
Was a comedy (yeah, sure) of errors. When I told them by phone that the power cord and foot pedal were missing I said I'd be down this am to get them....and I was. To find that they'd had another store send them to me UPS overnight! The gal phoned to make sure they'd made the UPS pick-up to find that it was sent......to someone else!!
So she gave me hers from the demo for now!
Good news on Sidewinder - I checked at the Fabric Depot for a different bobbin winder, but neither I or the saleslady could get the box open to check it! Decided to check their portable Sidewinders (which is exactly what I had) and Lo and Hark the bobbin fits! Maybe they pared down the spindle or something.
So NOW I'm happy!
