You should see my kitchen cabinets. My daughter is getting worried about me.

So glad Pearl is ok. I don't think you should feel too bad though. Last week I was ready to pitch mine out the window of my second-story sewing room. Spent a LONG time fussing with my machine, just before getting homicidal with it, I noticed that the presser foot was still up...

If that makes you stupid then I must be the queen of stupidity. This morning I was machine piecing, took a break, and decided that the color thread I had in my machine was a match for mending a small tear in an older shirt. I set the machine for zig zag and what a noise! My needle broke and that's when I realized I had my single hole plate in! Duh :oops:
