beautiful picture, wish i was there.
Mary, it also broke something in side, the repair guy said not to try and fix it. it will cost about 70-100 to fix it.
He said I'm better off getting a new one. It was on sale at Walmart, so in a few weeks, we'll go and get another one. till then, I'll hand sew. I'm making crazy quilt ornaments for this year. all hand beading and stitching, so i don't need a machine for that. It was making a weird noise before it all went kaput. RIP, my machine. I'll lurk here and can't wait to see what ideas everyone comes up with.
