    Thats too funny!! I have had my blond/senior moments every once in a while.

    I could not figure out why my bobbin tension was way out and would not adjust. Come to find out after 30 minutes of beating my brains out and playing with it I realized that the thread was not routed right in the bobbin area.

    When I routed it right all the sudden it was working great!!

LOL And two weeks ago , I was measuring and cutting squares, and than suddenly I couldn't find the tape measure. I looked high and low for two weeks, fianally bought another one. Found one of 5 year olds GS little cars under the bed, and as I was putting it in the proper box with his other cars, lo and behold! there was my tape measure. When I was telling him later where I found my tape measure, that sweet, innocent, smile appeared on his face. He knew exactly where he put it!LOL
    I still haven't found mine that I used yesterday and my grandson hasn't been here since before I used it!!
    Kitsie, Shhhhhhhh!!! :lol: Supposed to wait until he goes home next time and 'discover' you can't find it. :lol:
