Holiday season- There's so much to do

I don't know how it all got done but Christmas came and I managed to have everything ready.  Yes, I made the usual cookies to send to the grand children and all the presents got purchased, wrapped and given.  My husband having cataract surgery on Christmas eve sure complicated the holiday this time but the first eye is done now and we're looking ahead to having the second eye done on Monday before the new year.  2020 will be starting very soon. I still have a few things to do before 8 arrive for New Year's day dinner.  Yup, things don't seem to slow down around here.  I'm always super busy.

Since it's the week between Christmas and New year's day, have you gotten all your FWs oiled, greased and the motor lubed.  This is my reminder for you all to get that done.  I'm working on all of mine.  Hopefully I'll get them all done within the next week.  Once finished I won't have to do the full Spa day for 6 months. I'll still oil every 8-10 hours of sewing and give that gib area of the bobbin assembly one drop of oil each day I sew.

Our Club class is coming up next Friday and Sunday.  I've giving all the information over on the Class Schedule pages.  Go over there to check out what to bring.  I do hope you will all be able to come.  We'll be making the thread catcher and the pin cushion for the FW sewing machine mat that we started last month.  Check this out.  I had a fun time making these.

I know a few people that bought the FW foot controller rest from me had a problem of the cushion sliding and we think we've got that issue solved.  Researching with the stain/glue specialists, we discovered that the two chemicals didn't play well together.  So, I have new rests to replace the faulty ones.  Please email me if yours was a problem and I'll bring a replacement to swap it for the faulty one at the Club class.  The new ones have a very nice slip resistant material that doesn't slide around.

I'm almost done getting all the names on the retreat/workshop list.  I'll be sending out more information very soon.  Thank you to all that got  their deposit checks to me on time. 

And, I wish you a very Happy New Year.  May it be safe and full of wonderful things for you and your families.  I hope to see you very soon!
