that sounds very good for you. ~hugs~

My heart is with you. However, that is much less than to fix mine and then no guarantee. Merry Christmas. Could be worse.

Yes things can always be worse.

I think most of that 2 weeks will be the Christmas and New Year break time. I did the same with my machine and it took months for the replacement gear to arrive (without Christmas in the middle) as Husqvarna were have problems at the time. Luckily I was told this by a few people in the know at a craft show that I went to at the time it happened and they all warned me.
HUGS! & hope the warranty will cover the cost of the part for you.

yup I always say leave it in God's Hands..........

Gosh Lor...bad news! But, you machine is not that old and I would think that this repair would be under warranty...it should not cost you anything...perhaps you should contact Janome...

I am thinking this too, thanks Kim

Sorry that your machine decided to take a "break". I would be lost without mine too. Hopefully the parts needed will arrive quickly and you will be back in stitching order sooner than expected!

Here's hoping lol thanks Marian, ~hugs~

So sorry Loralye, my utmost sympathy! I know what it's like not to have your sewing machine working properly. I'm still awaiting my Dongle! Hope you can find other things to do - like what Grace has suggested! Love Chris

I do & I am working on borrowing one. Hopefully tomorrow

Sorry for your unfinished projects. Maybe you could bake something for the gifts you intended. I think I am the only one left that loves fruit cakes. I quit making them 15 yrs ago when the cost of making them became astronomical! Yes, you can buy then but not the same. Kay

You are so right & we really like Christmas cakes too but the dark ones are next to impossible to find & your so right about the prices too!~hugs~

Don't forget, Santa is coming and maybe there is a surprise under the tree that you don't know about. It's also to help you step back a bit and regroup for the important things of Christmas. The real reasons for the season. Sorry it's broken.

thanks Leaha I will get things done one way or another no worries here.

I feel your pain. This too shall pass and sounds like you can fill your time with family. The best substitution. Merry Christmas

no worries Christine just a little set back but I will work around it

Bummer!!!!!! I feel for you. Not a good time.

Thanks & your so right but just means I will have to be more creative lol

That's discouraging. There's now time to do all the Christmas baking, clean your house top to bottom, redo the entire sewing room, and plan an exotic summer vacation. OR.... can your dealer/repairman loan or rent you a machine?

lol you have made me laugh so I thank you for this because the truth is all of these chores also have to be done lol & we have in fact brought our grandson back since he is on school break right now to help do all this lol
well except for redoing the sewing room of course lol

Plus I have barely started to wrap everything lol

bumper, look on the bright side, this will allow you to relax and enjoy the Holiday season and then you will be roaring to go in the new year
hugs

well he did say that it happened the last time due to a thick bit ? but he was able to repair it but now it has broke completely in the bottom part of the machine so he has to take the bottom all apart to repair it.

by pldc 16 Dec 2014

I am trying to figure if it is under warranty or not? I can't remember where it is so have to wait on hubs

I sigh with you and for you. ...hugs.
