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.

What 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.
Get his phone number, embroider it and hang on wall over your machine.

Any-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.
thankyou. I live on the West Coast near Elliston
Lyn - 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.
Think that should be doing - not going.
Glad you found this guy! Hang on to his contact #.

I certainly will. Just hope I don't have to use him again for a while.
Lyn, you will be so please to have someone to fix it need to keep his number close by! Is he far from you? I have a shop close by but still takes a week as machine goes away to be serviced. Hugs Sally

Wanted to tell everyone last evening, but had to have tea and do other things.
Great news, nothing worse than having a machine sitting there that you can't use.

I have so much I want to do.
I 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.

Haven't got the machine back yet, but surely it wouldn't happen twice -- would it??
Yippie! I hope you get your machine going real soon.

Me to! Another day closer.
Happy you will soon have your machine fixed! Nothing zaps our spirits, as when we can't stitch and have to put our creativity "on hold"!! LOL

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.

Thanks, Have been sewing today broke a couple of needles but seems to be going well now. One brolen needle was my fault. Don't know about the other.
Oh yay , how exciting! HOPE it all goes well for you from now on!!!!!!! :) :) :) A few broken needles aren't anything compared to what you had to endure with it until now. Have a great night!
How wonderful to come across someone who really seems to know what they are doing! Glad to hear you may be back up and running soon!
