venting East/West challenge -I think I'm out for good
My main machine won't sew. And now the machine I just got to work is having MAJOR tension issues. I have the top tension all the way tight and the bobbin tension so loose that the screw is about to fall out. And it still sews like the top is too loose and the bobbin is too tight.

I'm sick of messing with them. I've spent more time trying to get one seam stitched the last 3 days than I have doing anything else.

I'm so irritated, I was on a roll too. I have stuff cut out waiting to be sewn. <pouts and kicks the ground>

Awww that sucks mama! I'm sorry you're having machine troubles!

But if you are out for good, should we take Marina up on her offer to take over for you? Is that allowed?
