I've read here in the shop that it's easier to FMQ on the 15's than the 66's...but I haven't tried either for myself yet. So you VSM owners that have both reg and clone 15's, what are your opinions? Thank you, Melissa |

She did clean up easily & nicely. |
GGGGGRRRRRRR. SNARL. SNAP. I dragged home a Singer 99 with a bent balance wheel shaft with a visible crack in it - my Singer 66 now has a bobbin cover and my Spartan now has a one piece cover for the case. I guess I will part the thing out. I was hoping it could be fixed. GGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRR :hunf:

No it takes a wheel puller you need a machine shop almost and is not something you will want to do.

I've been busy this past weekend. Our 100 member quilt guild had its quilt show. Last Friday I worked 8 hours helping set up, then volunteered at the show Saturday and Sunday, and helped with take down. It is a tremendous amount of work to put on a show. My hat is off to anyone who has ever been the Chairperson for an event like that. I was just one little committee person. Lots of beautiful quilts. I'm hoping for the next show, that I can have a roped off area and display some of my antique Iron Ladies. It won't be for 2 years. I did get a Blue Ribbon in my division, so I was a happy quilter.
