Hi Cuties: If you are like me and have a hard time removing the screws on your machines, try this. I bought some Fimo (modeling clay), cut some off and rolled it into a round shape. Flattened it out and then sunk a Nickle, Dime or Quarter in the clay

Hi Cuties: Has anyone thought of or tried this: It seems that the bolts on our hoops are the first to wear out. In the past I have bought extra bolts and nuts for my machines, but they are very expensive. This is my thought: Just buy regular nuts a

Hi Cuties: Can anyone give me some information on the Giga Hoop for Janome Machines? Do you use it the same as the other hoops? If I bought a design that is larger than my 5x7 hoop, and used the giga hoop, does it stitch out the same? I really don't
