We all get a little down and discouraged. Just last month I closed the door to my room and just recently opened it up. You need to walk away and then come back with a frest attitude. Attitude is everything. I was doing embroidery, I'm very ew to this, and I couldn't get te machine to work properly. It was operator problems. I came back to it 2 weeks later and voila, it worked. Don't give up!
