Ok, so let's try this...

So, the Baby-Lock 1550 has been misbehaving. That's fine. I sat it in the corner and told it that it's been bad, and I pulled out an OLD Singer: model number Merritt 1872 (a machine that I had bought for my daughter so that I could teach her how to sew - and it's being ignored in favor of her new laptop). Anyway, I am going to work with the Singer today and see if I have any better luck. If this one fails, I'll just go and get my Granpa Garnes' old treadle sewing machine and finish my project that way - and I'll get great legs out of this deal, to boot! wink

Here we go!
