Bucking Bronco!
#1
My DS has not sewn for years and has lent me her sewing machine. I'd never look a gift horse in the mouth(What does that saying mean anyway *Shrug*LOL). But unless I am sewing at a snails pace or at the speed of light, anything in between the machine bounces like a bucking bronco! Anyone have any remedies?
Thank you!

I always thought it was my machine that bounced ... but found it was the table. My magnifying Ott light is clamped to the table also - and when I first tried to overcast seams to make pillows, going really really fast, I thought my eyes would pop out of my head! Glad I'm a slow sewer otherwise.

I've got a small TV on my sewing room table, and a DVD player on top of the TV. The other day I had my serger out, serging the edges of the curtains I was making. The serger is normally put away; I don't use it all that often.
I was speeding along, when suddenly: WHAM!!! :shock: :shock: :shock:
After I peeled myself off the ceiling, I realized the vibrations from the serger had rattled the DVD player right off the top of the TV, and it splatted on my table. Luckily it didn't get broken.
Scared the daylights out of me, though! :lol:
