A Bump In The Road


I was happily creating in my studio using my embroidery machine for lettering on the cushions I am making......WHEN..... frustration took over as the machine refused to do any more!!!! Talk about "Bird's Nests!" They kept appearing under my work and when I cut them away the threads fell into the machine and I could not reach them...$%@##
Best laid plans of mice and men...... cats in this instance!!!!
So I have put my dancing shoes away and will direct my creativity in another direction until my machine is released from the hospital!!!
Stay tuned!!

Machines are wonderful when they work and frustrating when they don't. Hope you get her back soon and that she is in great working order. No more frustrating nests.

Hello Maggie, It is very rainy and stormy here today, I hope all is a bit sunner in your world. Your baby will be back from the doctor soon and you will be off and running again. Big Hugs Judy

Hope your machine is out of the hospital soon. I would so love an embroidery machine.

God bless.

How annoying! Sometimes when mine does that all it takes is a new needle...hope your "cure" is an easy one. BTW, a very belated Happy Anniversay!
