Sounds like you are having a bit of depression, and rightly so. Don’t do anything rash. When I lost my mother I went through a depression. I found that exercise helped me. I couldn’t function on the drugs and the gym was just what I needed. Take some time and perhaps a walk and you will be feeling like your self soon enough. Hugs and Love to you.
1648Oh Stella, I am so sorry to hear that. Don't do anything rash and sell oyur machines. You are just going through a rough time and need time to recover from all this. I don't get to use my machines as often as I'd like to but they sure do provide some stress releif and joy for me.
Prayers and hugs for you!

740256so sorry for you loss and as everyone has said, hold off on making big changes.
2945Stella we don't wanna miss you here and I'm sure after a while you will be inspired again from the projects and all the wonderful designs in DBC.
For now just cover your machines and enjoy the summer. When it is autumn again and christmas comes with big steps you will start again being crafty I bet ;o)
Greetings, Bettina
33986Dear Stella, Please wait for a bit of time to elapse before you think of selling your machines. Your aunt's death has obviously been a huge upset for you. Take your time to grieve and I am sure you will soon be sewing again. Hugs Sarah.
253107I also agree with everyone else to take your time, especially your treasured machine. It might help you in the end when you feel up to it to start making some things and taking your mind of your sad loss. You also have lots of friends here on cute.
Sending you a big hug edith
57801You've not had a very nice time, sorry. Give it time. Regards Jan
4131Sorry to hear of your loss.
It's always best to wait to make decisions - never in haste! Once you have grieved, you'll probably want your machines - you'll be able to do something in memory of your aunt. I'm sure she wouldn't want to you stop your enjoyment.
Take care.
38558What a very sad time for you.
Please don't give up on something that gives you joy..
This is a tough time for you, but you're not alone, you can always find someone to talk to here on cute.
Sending you special hugs - kitty
10333Dear Stella, I am sorry to read about your aunt. And too, I know how hard it is when a shopkeeper...who is also a friend...closes down! But, like the Cuties here have said, wait a bit before you do anything. You might find after your solace that you will want to fill your days with stitching soon enough. Hugs and God bless, and prayers for you to feel better real soon!!
19452Dear Stella, I agree with everyone else. By all means grieve for your Aunt, but don't do anything too soon about your sewing machine. There are a lot of us on here who for some reason or another have a break from sewing. Take time and as Angie has said maybe look for a new project to do. What about a memory quilt in honour of your Aunt? Sorry to hear about the shop closing. Love and blessings Chris
234253Stella now is not the time to make important decisions. Like Jerrilyn said you can always do that down the road. Give yourself time to morn and you may find that you need a pick me up. For me it is a new project and if that is the same for you you may want to dust off your machine. Come here and meet with us.I am so sorry you have to go through this.
Hugs Angie

8047Stella, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your aunt. I remember you posting about her before. What a blessing to have 92 years. Remember that you are in shock and trying to deal with this grief. Take plenty of time before you do something that you regret and then later on say 6 months down the road, if you still want to sell your machines, then go ahead. We are here for you. ;)
158553You have hundreds of friends here on Cute. I need your input on designs and projects. I am certain that someone who lives near you could learn so much from you, if you are willing to teach them. Don't give up your hobby or your machines when you are sad. The sadness should pass and you will need your machines again. Give yourself some healing time and come here often for support.
I have always admired you. Your user name suits you well. You always comment with such grace. There is so much I could learn from you.
57620I love the sound of my machine. If all I had to do was embroidery I would be happy. We will be here for you whether you stitch or not. Take care of yourself. christine LLDS!
173580So sorry to hear of the loss of your Aunt. I'll be praying that God will be your comfort during this time of grief. I find that when I need quiet time, my sewing machine can be a good therapist!! Maybe some of your favourite designs on a new project will help uplift your spirits. I'm learning that this group is a very caring group and I trust we can be here for you. Blessings!
3003Welcome back to Cute. Sorry to hear about your Aunt, she must have had a great life. Sorry you sound so low. Take care and dont do anything hasty that you will regret
114359Stella, dear - I am so sorry to hear of your dear aunts passing. I will be praying for you.
Don't do anything rash - when you are feeling so done - use your machine and working with your designs to pick you up, rather than drain you.
We are always here for you dear.
