Sunday sewing

Last week I took a two day class on servicing Pfaff and Husqvarna Viking sewing machines at the SVP headquarters in Drammen.  I brought my Pfaff Quilt Expression 4.0 in to practice on, and I was horrified by all the lint trapped inside my machine..... The pile you see on the right side of the machine is just a small part of it.  I also adjusted the thread tension, and now my machine sews like a dream again!  

So I have been sewing a little bit this week- here's a little peek at the lid I am making for a purse- I hope to finish it today before Ola's soccer game this afternoon.
Have a wonderful Sunday!

  1. Nice peek!
    Will you be servicing sewing machines for clients? You are so clever!

    I clean my machine every two weeks, but I’m sure inside is a messy amount of lint!

  2. It would be great to be able to take your machine apart for cleaning - the amount of lint that gets in is amazing!
