I'm not sure...Thank you for your kind comments!<br />I'm not sure if I will discuss the condition of the loaner with them... I am not a such type of polite person (I am rude yesyesyes) but I'm assuming that they don't care of its condition anyway. If I have to know the machine is to be abandoned for good, it will make me sad. I know it sounds stupid though. I even start to think if I could ask them to hand(sell) it to me now.... oh I am rude, stupid and crazy now. Thank you everybody, again.<br />>Lucette, you are absolutely right about the needle. Thank you for your kind words but I've tried new needles of many types as well as re-threading, re-assembling of rotating hooks, dusting, cleaning etc etc. I think it needs a professional removal of metal staining in the rotating compartment. I don't want to break it, so I am doing practically nothing but wiping it at the moment.yoshimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00506313509701098651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4801563355843305920.post-40513548261772546272010-07-16T00:01:53.885+09:002010-07-16T00:01:53.885+09:00I just found your blog recently and really like al...I just found your blog recently and really like all your sewing projects. This blouse is so pretty and the sleeves add something special. About the loaner machine, try using a new needle. When I have skipped stitches it is usually because the needle is dull.Luciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14262553796031925066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4801563355843305920.post-88702157539835417442010-07-13T12:03:07.416+09:002010-07-13T12:03:07.416+09:00Your T-shirt is beautiful!

...Your T-shirt is beautiful! Such pretty fabric...<br />I'm sorry about your sewing machine, and sympathise. I would go spare without my machine too. Once my machine needed some work, and the lady at the shop could see how anxious I was (I was halfway through a dress for an Important Occasion), and wrote "urgent, please give top priority" on my order, and rang me two days later to let me know it was finished! I was thrilled at how kind and understanding they were!Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03156106727490224625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4801563355843305920.post-53209051061464732172010-07-13T06:18:48.698+09:002010-07-13T06:18:48.698+09:00Cute, cute, cute Tee!

Good luck with your maintenance!! I love...Yoshimi,<br /><br />Good luck with your maintenance!! I love your posts, as I'm always going on in my comments:) That's too funny re: the sewing machine shop loaner machine. How ironic. <br /><br />Being an American, I would let them know (after thanking them profusely) - that their machine could be fine tuned a bit more! Well, I think I would anyway (it's a delicate subject). It does make me wonder if that would be against your cultural norms in Japan. For example, I taught a class in Japan and got the best critiques I've ever received (but I think they are just being polite). <br /><br />I love your knit top - it is making me even more obsessed to find some Liberty fabric!! I can't believe I can't find any (and I live in Los Angeles!). <br /><br />P.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13197442485237029218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4801563355843305920.post-52372772842248792532010-07-13T00:05:29.285+09:002010-07-13T00:05:29.285+09:00I too have virtuosa 153.

I hope the dust bunnies in the loan machine keep you laughing into outer space for long enough, till you get your machine back.nommhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06742663611694888098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4801563355843305920.post-65780924924532469392010-07-12T23:56:35.736+09:002010-07-12T23:56:35.736+09:00I am without my regular machine, too.

If I could get the Activa for under $400, I might buy it as a second machine.Elarayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06487492651398001387noreply@blogger.com
