Now the friendship has turned ugly. I think of it sitting in my closet and I wish it would disappear, or perhaps change into a nice dependable machine instead of one that decides to sew great for one project then halfway through the next identical one, spit out stitches like a 5 year old hand sewing.
It has been like this the last 5 plus times I have sewn anything. It works fine, nothing is changed by me and then bam it freaks out. Normally re-setting everything up, tinkering, cleaning out the fuzz has done the trick. But not it seems like nothing makes it want to sew so much as a straight line. I am ready to pull my hair out.
To make matters worse I finally have people actually wanting to buy slings on a regular basis and I have nothing to do it with. I have already had to go up to my awesome mother in law's house twice to work on stuff, but driving a half hour is not so handy with a toddler.
So basically I am ready to commit. What is a sewing machine that will still be working when I go to teach my grandchildren how to sew some day. I am so done with a machine that has so much plastic it sounds more like a preschool toy than a professional machine.
Vent over . . . What should I buy?
