jinxed - Page 2

I am just SO easy-going. So slow to anger - probably wouldn't blink if my
new car didn't have a gas tank. OTOH, a sewing machine without a foot
control? Them's fighting words.
Every time. Without fail. When I bring one of my SMs home from being
serviced, I open the case to be sure that the bobbin case, foot control,
power cord, and foot are: (1) mine and (2) there. It's a nuisance but not
nearly so awful as getting home with any of that missing. Polly

What kind of machine did you get?

Some of those Janomes have "start/stop" buttons. You can sew with them
instead of the foot pedal. I, personally, don't have that kind of
coordination, but lots of quilters over on the 6500/6600 list love using
the button. If your new machine has one at least you could sew until
you get the foot pedal.

So, how did they demo the machine for you without it?

both good questions, Marcella. No to the stop start button. been
there done that looked for it

and I have no idea how they could lose the foot pedal for the floor
model - when things like this happen, I'm always so sure that they
think I'm the one who lost it. It shouldn't matter what they think,
and I'm probably wrong...but....

I don't think you are jinxed Cindy. Janome machine
with a problem? I guess I have to just say I am sorry
and otherwise no comment. Everyone here has heard
me complain about them enough. Hope you can work
it out.
