Well...it arrived! I was most impressed with the efficiency of the delivery. I had a text and e-mail in the morning to give me the approx. delivery time - and sure enough it arrived! I was so excited (pathetic really!) and couldn't wait to have a go. I was very disciplined and carefully read the instructions and also watched some tutorials on You Tube before I launched in. Then when I did start, I couldn't believe how simple it was. Like a sewing machine, but much easier because no thread to worry about. I did nearly needle felt my finger once, so a good lesson - to be very careful! I can't wait to get going again - and have been awake since the early hours planning what I am going to do....
