Thank you for your input. I have decided that you are right and that I need to try out the machine at the shop.<br /><br /><br /><br />

The design I was working on was a rather lengthy cross stitch. I had almost finished when I hit the problem. I am going to take my flash drive with some small designs on and try them there. I would be furious to get home and to find that the machine was still not right.

Think I better explain. My machine goes to a Bernina shop an hour and a half away. The technician lives another hour and a half away. The embroidery machines get taken and collected once a week. I am being taken on Monday by a friend who also needs to make the same journey. I am grateful for the lift and she will sit wait/ watch while I put my machine through its paces. If there is a problem the machine will have to be taken back to the technician and another week will go by. Please keep fingers crossed that it will be fine. I am wondering what I am going to be charged???
