Grrrr!

Sep 27, 2013 5 Replies

So annoyed! My latest quilt project is almost done. Just as I was finishing up the last machine part of the binding, the machine went out of time. And there was not a pin anywhere near the needle area. Grr! Retreat is in two weeks. Here's hoping I can get a fast repair.



Mary, irked


Don't you hate when that happens? When I had a dressmaking/tailoring business, my machine had to be sent back to the factory, and I was ready to borrow/rent a machine to finish items in time. Fortunately, it was returned very quickly, but I vowed to always have a "back-up" machine. I once made a large pieced tablecloth on my serger when my machine was away!

My machine is back in time (and in time for retreat). Now to decide on which projects toi take along.

I might even tuck >Don't you hate when that happens? When I had a dressmaking/tailoring

I learned a long time ago that if you have a back up machine your regular machine acts up a lot less. I got in a real bind many years ago at Christmas time when I had no back up machine. I now have many back up machines and try not to work to deadlines. Both make life a tad easier. Have fun at the retreat Mary. Taria

I might even tuck in my back up machine, just in case.
