My shop in Westchester tries the machine out itself and leaves the fabric they use under the needle showing different stitches tried. I hope you get back to sewing really soon.

I would croak if that happened to me!

And why DIDN'T they test it before allowing it out the dang door???????? Whew. I seem to share your frustration!!

Hugs! Hope its fixed right this time!

Wow! I would start considering maybe taking it to a different repair place.

I had the same problem with my repairman. When after 18 mo. and a threat to call the law, he gave it back to me. The first time I tried to sew it sounded like a thrash machine. I was NOT going to take it back. I looked it over, and decided to oil it. Thats all it took, after 2 mins. of testing it purred. When you take it back, have a piece of material with ypu and have them try it out for you!!!!!!!!!!

after 2 trips, I would definately try is before leaving the shop.

Oh, Diane, that is maddening. Hope they get it straightened out for you, soon. Have a Happy Easter.

Reminds me of the times that we have taken our car in for repairs only to come back with something else wrong. Happened more than once or twice. Absolutely, don't leave the shop until they have tested it and made sure it is actally repaired. Good luck.

I love looking at all the pictures. This is my 16 year old Grandaughter with her puppy, Ari. Isn't she beautiful? Sorry I'm just so proud. She's equally as smart. All you ladies and gentlemen have such cute pictures of animals and all sorts of things.
