Good for you :P

Sounds like a win-win situation to me. First hubby really tried to help because he knew you loved to sew and second....You get a new machine. Lucky you for both!

I love it when a plan comes together! LOL even if it isn't planned.

Good news is that he wasn't able to fix it and even better news is that I got an early Christmas present!! I got a new Janome 3160 QDC!! I love it! Hopefully I will be able to learn how to do some new things.

Congratulations on your new Christmas Gift. I've had a $79 Sewing Machine for 5 years. It has pieced 6 quilts and is still running. I did buy a new one, just in case. I don't have a husband to dismantle the cheap on so, will just keep pluging it in until it goes to SM heaven.

:lol: Sometimes the bad news produces some great news! Congrats on your new baby! Hope you gave a respectable burial to your old one...:lol:

Great news. Now do you have anything else you can give to DH to "fix". Make it something you've dreamed of owning :wink:

Sweet! I think your first project should be something for him - my husband would never have even tried to fix it!

Just goes to show that something good comes from something not so good - sooner or later - in your case sooner. congrats

Congrats, Lisaginger! Now you have to make a decision about what to do with the broken machine. Toss it, or keep it around just in case DH figures out how to fix it...
