up in there where I couldn't get to it. Now it is all cleaned and oiled and ready for another 100,000 miles! Isn't a sewing machine an amazing device. I truly can't imagine what people do who can't sew. It's what enables me to be creative, to problem-solve, to personalize things, to make gifts, to make my house a home. I'm so thankful I learned to sew! Is it trite to say sewing completes me?

I am glad for you. It is such a nice feeling to have it back and working isn't it?

You are so right Jan. I can't imagine what people do without sewing in their lives. I just love my hobby. I know my number 1 daughter thinks I'm crazy for spending so much time doing it, but I LOVE IT with a passion. I'm so glad you got your baby back. Life is pretty dull without a whirring sewing machine.

Love and blessings Chris

P.S. It's 8.18pm Saturday evening and I'm just about to go and have some popcorn and watch Willie Wonka again for about the 4th time. I just love Gene Wilder as Wonka.

Jan, I see you went over the mountain and through the woods to get your machine home - I am glad for you that you took the trip - now let's hope that they didn't charege you an arm and a leg? Get to work and start snapping pictures and sharing them in projects. Hehehe!

Fortunately, when I bought my machine on eBay I took it in for service. It was new enough then that they offered me the service contract on it. I jumped on the offer. So, for 4 years it is all covered - even the little screw that I lost that holds it all together! Whew. It's sewing great now. Thanks

Feels so good to have the baby back in the house. Long trip to get her home but well worth the effort.
Now on with the projects. Hugs, Karen
