Why is it that I can make shirt after shirt (same pattern) but when I am pushed for time something goes wrong. I sat for ages yesterday just trying to get a collar on. I am ready to pull my hair out. LOL.

Remember my daughter Emma (Joshua's mother), who was retrenched and without work for eight months. She has been with her new job for less than a year and has been given a huge promotion. No extra money at the moment as they perhaps want to see how she g

First of my presents on my new machine - sewed out beautifully - my heart was in my mouth!!! Shop bought apron with my friends name. The font is called Bonnie. I just love it as the letters are easy to twist and turn.

Well - had quite a day with my new machine. Managed to break a needle, get a birds nest under the needle plate and got very frustrated. When the machine was running properly it was amazing. It is so quiet. I have a feeling that we are going to get on

These were the very last things I made on my old machine before it died on Sunday morning. If my new machine sews anything like my old one I will be delighted. She was truly a dear friend. Sarah.

UPDATE ON JOSHUA Just when I thought that yesterday could not get any better. Joshua had his final x rays and visit to the orthopaedic surgeon yesterday afternoon. The surgeon sat with Joshua's foot on his knee and with tears in his eyes told Josh

I really do not know what to say. Sitting beside me is a box with a brand new machine in it (a demo model). DH realised just what my machine meant to me. We had a long chat this morning and it was decided that I should have a new Bernina machine. It h

What an amazing bunch you are. Your replies to my post about my machine dying bought tears to my eyes. My first thought was to try and get another machine like mine and to use the part I needed. Had long chat with DH last night and he thinks that as the

I am feeling absolutely numb. My dear old faithful embroidery machine cannot be repaired. It is not produced any more and Bernina do not have any parts for it. I have been on the Internet for some hours, looking for the same machine for spare parts. It

Looking for a meerkat as my GD Georgie has asked for one on a t shirt. I really do not want to spend a lot of money as I will only use it once. Saw a lovely one at Ann the Gran but too big for my 4x4 hoop. Sarah.

Always find picking up threads from the carpet a near impossible task with a vacuum cleaner. Try using one of the sticky lint rollers over the carpet - works wonderfully and also picks up the odd stray pin :) Sarah.
