is home from the shop.woo hoo and only $65.00 to fix it.doing a happy dance.I had stripped out the screw that holds the needle in and they had to replace the whole shaft-I was afraid it was going to cost a lot more than that.

It is hard when those machines go to the shop...I feel lost when mine is serviced ;) Glad it didn't set you back too much! It's a sunshine day here in Iowa - good day to sew!

sure is hard.I have a few machines so I could still sew but missed her anyway.also sunny and almost above freezing here today.happy quilting

Glad you got your baby back!!
Where is the sun?????????? Gloooomy here in Columbus!!

Whew! Glad you'll be back in business.

Our sun came out about noon today. We had storms rumble through last night but we got the least of it. Still had some storms this morning but we missed all the hail, it went to the north of us. I sewed until I got tired and went to bed.

you need to visit upper Wisconsin for a while :thumbup:

Glad shes back and maybe tomorrow the sun will be too!

Glad it didn't cost you and arm and a leg. The last time I took one in for repair, it was going to be so expensive I decided it would be cheaper to just buy a new one. Or, that was my story and I'm sticking to it. LOL

Wolph, my son said Wisconsin is a beautiful state!!! :thumbup: :thumbup:

it is-very woodsy-lots of forests and wildlife

Congratulations!!!

Yessss...it's so good to have the three machines back that I've had in the shop since Christmas. The first was a Featherweight that wouldn't pick up the bobbin thread. When I picked it up I took in my Pfaff that had developed some serious tension issues. When I picked that one up I took by Babylock that was jamming in the bobbin area and needed adjustment to the needle threader. Now they are all running wonderfully and I am so HAPPY! I should be set for quite some time now.

3 down- I would have had a breakdown too-glad all are fixed
