Do you suffer withdrawal symptoms when you don't have access to your sewing machine? Yesterday mine went in for its first complimentary service after 12 months and it could take 14 days to come home again. So how am I dealing with that? Going to buy more fabric today of course. I have got on and prepared some appliques that I can do by hand that will go into a charity quilt, and maybe I could finish off all those almost finished embroideries, and maybe I could even do some housework and baking and ironing. How boring! Will I last the distance? :-(

Oh yes. My machine was on the fritz for almost two weeks before I got it fixed. About drove me nuts. Still trying to catch up on my swaps.

Yes I go in to a depression with out my machine. Have gone the wait 2 weeks route, and didn't like it one bit. I found a shop here that makes an appt. to service machines for out of town customers!!! I love it. They service my machine while I shop!!!!

Where in NC?

that's why I have 5 or 6 machines...to prepare for all contingencies :)

Yes, that's why I have more than 1 machine. LOL

Kill me! That is sheer torture.

I do hand work....or use one of my spares... :wink:

That is why I have back ups :D:D:D

Are we bonafide addicts or what?? LOL :D:D:D
