It was another great day, for me, anyway. I am, at this point, exhausted. It's a good tired, though. You know the kind where you feel tired, but not cranky. I spent the day with some truly wonderful people. Our TOGA is small. I like the intimacy.
I reviewed the different belts I use on the treadles: leather, urethane and coil spring. I showed off my cool tool. The belt pliers.
A. was busy with the 201. I had demonstrated how to service the motor the day before and she dug into cleaning the rest of the machine. Today she finished it. That is a stand alone post and maybe one day I will tell you all about it. Not tonight, dear. I have a headache.
She also starred in the attachments demo:
You should have been there. She WOWED us with her knowledge and skill. She even made a zig zag attachment WORK.
Some of us sewed, some of us worked on machines, and some of us just hung around. It was really quite chaotic. Thank Goodness we were a small group.
Tomorrow: more of the same. Half day, though. I am beat.
Would I do this again? It certainly has been fun and a dream fulfilled. To have others who love these machines come and play with me. Honestly, I wish I had a better venue. But for the price, this one was perfect.
I bet everyone learned something new at your toga. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't know about everyone, but I sure did.
