Ahh I love the nights where I wake up and can't go back to sleep! Well, today I have to take hubby to get labwork done before he has surgery next week. Who knows how much I will get accomplished during his recovery. He's having surgery on one foot and both Achilles tendons and will be confined to bed/wheelchair for at least 8 weeks. I can't say I'm jumping for joy on this one but I'm happy he won't be in pain everyday like he is now. I'm desperately trying to get this bedding knocked out beforehand. Got the pillow done now all that remains is the crib quilt and bumper pads...

Joe, that Kenmore looks like it could be run over by a tank and still survive!
Jenn, love the pillow - nice job! Also, your 28 is really nice. I didn't know the pheasant decals were used on the 28. I have a 27 with the pheasant decals. Those decals were only used for a short time, and only very early on!

Hummmmmm, I remember Cathy, Mizkaki, telling me that you will get skipped stitches if the eye of the needle doesn't rotate across the hook at the right time. Now I will have to remember how to re-time my 319w as my 4 years old grandson did a number on that machine again! It is all messed up with the needle hitting the hook - AGAIN! So frustrating as that is my at home piecing machine these days - it is always set up ready to go! Now, I will have to remove it from the treadle and re-time it for the second time!

That 4 year old needs to be punished at this point. Once might be an accident, twice is deliberate. And were he my grand son, he'd be banned from the house until he learned or was taught to keep his hands off things.
For some reason that machine attracts his attention and if you can't stop him he will ruin it one of these times. If he hasn't all ready.
Personally I can't figure out how he's knocking it out of time. Hook timing is very hard to change just by accident. As is needle bar timing. We have a 319 and I've studied it some, so I'm pretty sure if he did really knock it out of time he had to work at it.
You've got to keep that kid away from your machines! Sorry, I get frustrated by grubby little hands going where they don't belong and can only be nice once.
