What kind of temperature level do you keep in your shack?<br />My Millie is in my home above my kitchen where my Aga has been running all summer as the weather here has been cold and wet. As often happens my Millie starts to skip stitches when the temperatures drop, even if she has been running all afternoon... below 18 degrees I have to stop and wait for my studio to warm up so I try to keep the temperature above 20 degrees celsius....that is a little too warm for me to be honest as the room has low ceilings.<br />I know that you must suffer weather that is far colder than ours and for longer periods so wondered how this affects your machine?<br /><br />Best Wishes<br />Kay in Scotland <br />Borderline Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12229408740451041710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3275460982299302514.post-41986872722995088022012-09-18T11:13:12.288-05:002012-09-18T11:13:12.288-05:00I have never been able to get the knack of paper p...I have never been able to get the knack of paper piecing.

I'm only about 1/3 the way through my Prairie Star, but it's going to be worth the time! Again, very nice job and wonderful fabric choices!<br /><br />BevLittle House Creationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18438322114329900839noreply@blogger.com
