[Nfb-krafters-korner] upset

[Zimmer, Cindy]

Joyce,
Feel your hook of your sewing machine where you put your bobbin case.  Does it happen to have a nick on it.  Sometime a needle will hit the hook and cause a gouge.  This can cause your thread to break.  If that is not the case, is the thread pulling out of the bobbin easily?  Check your bobbin tension.

I am really upset.  My sewing machine is giving me such grief.  I  don't know what is wrong with it, but I keep on re threading it both the bobbin  and the top.  As I am a true believer that if your thread breaks or jams up  or anything like that, unthread your machine and rethread it.
 
Last night I went in and wanted to work on the quilt some more as my middle  Princess's Birthday is April 7 so I have time.  All I wanted to do is sew around 1 block and only 2 layers of fabric.  Isewed like 3 inches and the thread broke, rethreaded it and it jammed up.  Noticed I was running low on bobbin thread so filled up a bobbin and rethreaded it.  Well I rethreaded it 12 times and couldn't get it to sew this 6 1/2 inches.  So I gave up and went to bed.  I went to bed early like 10 PM and fell asleep and woke up at
 12:15 A.M. and didn't fall back to sleep until after 7 A.M.  At least I found my PackMate at 4 a.m.
 
I wish I could find out what happen to my other sewing machines.  I  had 4 other ones.  They just vanished.  Well I do have another one,  but can't find the foot peddle. 
 
Don't ever let anyone pack and move your things.
 
I have been looking for the packmate since last summer.  I had two of them.  Well I found one on Sunday in my sewing room just sitting with the boxes.  Now I was going crazy as I knew it had a Braille Display on it and  that was gone.  I went in Sunday night and yesterday and started going thru boxes and could not find it.  I got out of bed since I wasn't sleeping and started looking in the night stands drawers.  I knew I had left it on my  bureau back in May.  Well don't have any idea whi I looked in the bottom  drawer in my bureau, but it was under some clothes that were in there.  The  thing 
is I have 2 Packmates one with a Braille Display and one without.   Now it 
never hit me that the one I found was my one without the Braille  display.  
But now I have finally found both of them including my type and  speak.
 
I still didn't find the Summit bar code scanner and my sewing machines, but  I will keep on looking.
 Joyce
