Today I road shotgun to Bird Island with Dennis’ nephew, Brett. Brett had a break down with his Husqvarna sewing machine. It is the one on his long arm quilter. Without realizing it he jammed the bobbin in askew. It was a good trip for road surface. Amanda and Kelly are great in the Bernina Shop. Kelly did get it to the point that the needle would go up and down without breaking, but only while he turned the flywheel by hand. Brett had grabbed the wrong electrical foot pedal. Bummer. I checked with Brett late this afternoon. It was working but was making a different noise than he remembered, though the machine has been broken down for several weeks. I did encourage him to perhaps seek out a Husqvarna dealer as Amanda and Kelly are a Bernina repair shop and this machine is quite unique.
It drove home the fact that I am so thrilled that no matter what I have for problems, I have the real deal when it comes to the licensed Bernina repair place to go.
We made a quick stop in Fairfax so Brett could meet Kevin. Kevin has sought concrete advice via Brett through me and Brett sunk the I beam into our yard for Kevin to secure our garage via Kevin’s instructions. It was time each could put a face to the fellow.
It’s been a gray misty type of day, but it sure beats ice and snow. I know how to come in from the wet, but always question myself as to whether I will make it in from walking on the ice and snow.
