francine Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Got my side covers already! They are totally cool and there is no way I could have made them for the price paid. They even have the wick!! Thanks Country Quilts!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-Jane Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Thanks!! So glad you like them - We are so use to them and being able to see inside our Millie, it seems odd to see a "head" with the standard sides!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReisingStarQuilts Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Dave. I cant believe the amount of thread I found wrapped around Lennilou when I opened her up to put on the clear side plate!!! I had no idea!!! I am sure my Lennilou thanks you as I was pulling her tightly by the throat with a wad of thread and didnt even know it. Best thing I ever did was put on the clear view!!! love them!!

Dave-Jane Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Dave is busy with quilting projects and digitizing some custom designs for a client's quilt. But he has some ideas he is working on for hanging quilts- all in the testing phase. He always has his brain in creative mode!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njquiltergirl Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 If you have the flywheel cover, do you need the clear side cover? Can thread still get in there? I clean it out once a year like the manual says and so far so good...no thread has gotten stuck in there...yet with the FW cover. Love the idea, but...I might watch the insides rather than the hopping foot, knowing me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-Jane Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Yes the thread can enter via the up and down arm slot next to the flywheel cover. It doesn't happen very often as you can catch it most of the time. Usually when you leave the machine unattended for a few seconds while the computer is running a pattern is when it happens. That's usually when any thing that can go wrong does! LOL. Please don't forget Kristina--the inventor!!!!!! I just makes um! LOL again--Dave. You should also thank Zeke for finding a less expensive place to buy the acrylic for me. Kind of a team effort ya know!! The sideview covers help at sales demonstrations to show the quality of the parts and also help to see when maintenance is needed and you can see the hopping foot adjustment screw a lot better to adjust it. You have to determine if you would like any of the pluses as I used the metal covers for years and they work very well. The sideviews just add a little convenience to your sewing pleasure. I have thanked my lucky stars for a thread dilemma I had using the example above though, so I keep em on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
