Aaargh!!

My darling precious Bernina is making the alarming 'growling graunching' sound again :-(

Otto did warn me that it could come back - I didn't expect it to be within mere days tho! It's raking at my heart that my little work-horse clearly isn't well. And it's killing me that a long weekend is a-wasting. I don't have a back up plan - I guess it's back into the Bernina Health Spa on Tuesday.

What to do ... what to do ...

    Oh Tazzie hun,

    This sounds like more than the health spa - probably Intensive Care. Hope she comes back to you 100% fit.

    In the meantime you'll just have to do some piecing on that gorgeous Featherweight of yours.

    I agree with clare, sounds more like a hospital visit. Hope its not major surgery, don't want to think beyond that, positive thoughts for a speedy recovery being sent your way ... lol :o)

    new machine....new machine...new machine...

    I really do sympathise, having been without mine for a week recently. I'm hoping to upgrade soon, too, and will be keeping my current machine (handy when one needs spa treatment to have a backup!).

    Oh, Tazzie, am sorry you are having mechanical problems with your Bernina, what an inconvenience.

    I had this bad sound last year. Took it to the Bernina dealer for repair and it was my "HOOKER"! I asked what that was and she talked like just a simple piece that broke and had to be replaced. 75.00Has worked fine ever since.
    Ask about your hooker maybe thats it.
    Good luck, I hate being without my machine for any length of time.

    I'm with Kathie and Emma, perhaps it's time to retire your machine and get a new one.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble. You can borrow mine if you want, I have a serious lack of sewing time lately so it is free....

    Hope Otto can fix it quick for you :)

    I can't believe you only have one machine? Is your featherweight operational? Oh well, more time for scrabble.
