Very frustrating FNSI...........
Well I was all set to go for FNSI but my machine had other ideas!!! I had two blocks all cut out ready for my August partners; chocolate ready as my reward but I didn't get very far...
I unthreaded, unscrewed, untangled, cleaned and put it all back together again 3 times before I decided I wasn't meant to do a lot of sewing on Friday. Didn't get back to it Saturday (bought a new mattress but that's another tale), Sunday ran around after DD's, yesterday just got away with me so this morning I decided I'd try one last time before getting the old machine out... I threatened her (Molly Machine) that she would be going in the cupboard and Old Jen Janome would be replacing her. It worked - my blocks are done and ready to post ........

Sounds like you have had a hard time with your machine. Good to hear you got it sorted out and got some sewing done.
well done after all that... so frustrating when the machine plays up...

Hi Mel the machines can be like cars sometimes and be so frustrating,love those blocks that snowman one is so cute,well done.xx
i know the feeling my wantnt go when i mash the petal and had been running good , i though oh no! but i unpluged her and repluged her and she ran, thank the good lord, my janome is waiting for money to have her fixed. she breaks down every few months
From what I can see, that looks like the same machine I have (6600P). Mine sews beautifully, but I do baby her a bit. She doesn't like lint at all, so I clean her quite often. I've found it less stressful to clean more often than to wait for a lint jam LOL. xx debbie
Glad you got her sorted. The block look perfect!
Persistence paid off as your blocks are perfect! :-)
Great blocks. Sewing machines have a mind of their own don't they!
don't you just hate machines sometimes!!!!???? Thank goodness she decided to behave! I bet you needed that chocolate after all that! xox hugs
Lovely blocks :) Sometimes machines seem to know better than we do :) Glad you are both in accord again :)
I really like those fabrics in the blocks. Some times our sewing machines can be a nuisance.
