I understand exactly how you feel. I went thru the same thing a few months ago. As Quilt4u suggested, a second one as a backup might be something to consider. A friend of mine bought an inexpensive Kenmore that she uses all the time and loves. I might end up with one of those myself as a backup or to take to class (lighterweight than mine).
Or you can keep yourself busy cutting out future projects, planning, or my favorite: shopping for fabric! LOL
I hope you get it fixed quickly! I always look forward to seeing your quilts.

OH NO :( :( :(
Maybe as suggested it will reset itself...if not I am so sorry!!! I have my first machine still as a back up...maybe an older thrift shop find to keep you going until you get your buddy repaired? All my new feet fit my old machine, I just had to get an adaptor for it :wink:

So sorry about your machine, but hopefully the dealer will get it fixed soon. It certainly shouldn't do it while it's under warranty, it's supposed to do it the next day after warranty is over.LOL If you don't mind me asking, what kind of machine is it?

I'm so sorry your machine died! Hopefully the dealer will get it back and running quickly. I have 4 machines so I'll never be totally withOUT a machine so I'm lucky........also, I don't EVER want to do needle and thread sewing again so I can't recommend it to others when I shudder thinking about doing it myself. If you lived closer I'd loan you one of my machines until yours comes back from the "hospital." Good luck.

Now -- if that doesn't work....post your address, flowers will be sent! :(
