This weekend we are having houseguests and I decided it was high time I got out the rest of the fall decorations. I changed things up a bit this year-always a good thing to keep the seasonal furnishings feeling fresh.
Hope my guests won't mind carrion crows pecking at the centerpiece.
Anyway, it's always tremendous fun to have folks over to celebrate the season, or any other excuse! Eva will be one of the guests, and I know she will approve of at least one of the items on the menu–mac and cheese.
Can you even believe it will be October this weekend? Where on earth did September go? I love September and it seemed to pass by in a flash. I think because it was so darn hot all month I spent it inside and missed it.
I did do a bit a sewing on my day off, in between the decorating. I've been making half square triangles for the Single Wedding Ring Blocks, using a little back up machine I have in the closet. My regular sewing machine has been in the shop for four weeks, so I decided to call the repair guy to see what the status was. Apparently, it has been finished and waiting to be picked up for some time now. And just how was I to know that, you might ask? It is up to the customers to check in regularly with the repair shop to see if their machines are ready, don't you know? They are much too busy to call people who are anxiously waiting to get their equipment back. It could have been there forever before I got a phone call, I swear.
Deep breath. I am so glad to get my Bernina back so I can return to my Halloween Bounce borders.
Arrgggh. If that man put a sticker on my machine, I tell you I will spit tacks.

I can’t believe they didn’t call you and tell you your machine was ready! Grrrr Decorations look good and Eva has good taste with that Mac and cheese. Have a great weekend!

I work for a quilt shop that sells and repairs Berninas and other brands. We always call when the machine is ready to return home. Lovely picture of your home.

Seriously?? Who doesn’t call the client when their machine is ready? I sure hope the sticker has been left off–that would just be adding insult to injury! Your Fall decor looks so festive! Have a great time with your guests–you can’t go wrong with mac ‘n’ cheese!

Do they want customers calling them continually to ask about the status of the machines, wouldn’t that be a waste of their time? Less so than calling the client when a machine is done. How bizarre! Enjoy your company and your sewing time.

Wow! I’ve never heard that before! You would think they wouldn’t want the liability or have the space to have machines sitting around! Anyway…glad you have your Bernina back and can get back to some serious sewing! Have a great time with your guests.

One courteous phone call when the machine is ready would be a time saver compared to multiple calls of inquiries. My mechanic has never put a sticker on my machines but he is now in his eighties and the search is on for a new mechanic. When I find a good one I will definitely find out his preference. With the machine ready and Eva at school should bring more sew time. Enjoy the time with your guests.

Customer service is just aint what it use to be. How did he expect to get paid! Glad you have your baby back and can get down to sewing. September and the beginning of spring skipped here in West Australia has been cold and wet. Nieghbouring state has been without power for twodays flooding and high winds. Worlds weather has gone crazy.

Love your table decor! Looks so inviting, lol on the carrion crows! I hope you don’t take your machine back to that guy. It would be worth the trip somewhere else instead of waiting for him and his lack of customer service.
