away where it came from. Told him the other guy said he worked on it for 2 and a half days. He said it should take him no longer than 2 and a half hours. Sadly he can't make a living out of fixing machines so can only do them after hours. He has worked with Brother for years. Maybe on the weekend I will be busy. You will hear me from your place.

Might have to leave the sewing over the weekend on hold - IF I get my machine back in time as it will be beautiful outside. Next week rain again, then I won't feel guilty being inside sewing.
12500Yippie! I hope you get your machine going real soon.

Thanks, I am lost. Don't know what to do. Suppose I COULD do some housework. Wash my mouth with soap.
261163I had the same trouble with the shop that is an hour and a half away. Couldn't fix my machine. The shop that is three and a half hours away fixed it in 2 weeks. I will always take it to the far away shop. Great service there. Hope yours is back in working order very soon.

I rang someone and they told me it would take at least 7-10 days before they could tell me what was wrong??

85867Lyn - that is today's Great News!!!!
I'm so glad you have found someone to help you.
Does he also have a solution for when your machine runs hot from overwork when you get it home again???
I'm betting you're getting around today with a very light heart, maybe a little song and definitely a great big smile.

Alma, I took it to Sewall. The place you suggested. I think this guy knows what he is going. Will cross the other guy off my list now.
17214Any-one I ought to know about? So glad you're on to it, I just hated it when my machine was away. Took about 6weeks, and they sent it to Sydney.

Not sure where you are in SA but he is in the Yellow pages under SewAll at Aberfoyle Park. He also has a Web site so just put SewAll in your search.
16529Get his phone number, embroider it and hang on wall over your machine.

67271What good news for you. Obviously the other man did not have enough experience in fixing machines. I hope you get your "baby" back soon. Hugs, Mary

The other guy just hasn't had experience with Embroidery machines. Might be good at fixing the old ones, but not the new versions.
33871What brilliant news. It is late very late with me and I am off to bed so I look forward to further great news from you about your machine.
