@rooeytoo stay tuned
SUCESS!!!! And I owe it all to your boyfriend @iamthemob! Yeah! I confronted my machine and said, “If you don’t straighten up and fly right I’m gonna have @iamthemob‘s boyfriend come down and open up a 50 gallon can off whoop butt on ya! You want that?? Huh???”
Then….I started thinking about paying for two round-trip plane tickets (I figured you’d want to come with him @iamthemob), not to mention the price of a hit on my sewing machine….which all made me stop and THINK! Well, Ok. Well, @rooeytoo….yes It has adhesive on it. I, too, have had disaster in the past trying to work with it, so this time I had the idea to keep the needle oiled up with Wesson oil. I experimented…and it worked like a charm. I got about half way through the project, oiling the needle at every corner (I was sewing rectangles, dur her!....) and it was working so well, and I was just flying along and then….well, everything went to hell in a hand basket. That’s when I went through 1½ hours of frustration. Until the machine operator (that would be Val, by the way. Not me, Dutchess. That dumbass actually doing the sewing is named Val) realized that she’d quit greasing the needle. After that, i she was done in 10 minutes.
Thank you guys!!! And yes, @rooeytoo it really works. You just have to stay on top of it…
