She is sewing on her Juki waiting for the machine once again to get out of the shop. She knows she has lost money if she tries to sell it. Hoping that the repairs will solve the problems.
I use Juki 2010 TL for piecing and quilting. I use old Bernina for decorative stitches and Brother for embroidery if I ever do that again.
