Thank You! I had requested something like this a few months ago, but there were no takers to attempt it back then. You've made this fiber craft addict very happy!

This is soooo coool. It fits right in with my medieval sim's lives. Upright pianos were just not the thing during that time period. This will work.

Thank you!!!!

This is WONDERFULL!!!!!!
I play mainly with my medieval sims and this gives something realistic for my lower class sims to do for creativity points!!! I am so excited for the spinning wheel as well.
You are very talented, thanks so much for your hard work!

I'd happily test for you, only I have all expansions to date so I don't suppose that's much use to you.

wow. I love your sewing machine. Now this...Fantastic! Another original object that I never thought would be made. Makes the sims look exotic and classic. The screenies shows the fantastic texture & detail. Thank you for making this great object.

This is a fantastic item, and clever idea and excellent use of the piano animations. Thank you very much for your work and for sharing.

Amazing! I absolutely adore this; it will fit in so well in the middle-class industrial Victorian neighborhood! And you say you're working on an antique sewing machine and a spinning wheel? Fantastic!

Awesome mod As a note, it works fine in my game, and I don't have Uni. ... but I have NL and OFB, if that helps anybody.

Default Thank you anyway

The tambre and melodies of the piano just plain wouldn't cut it. I tried to figure out the sound files to have a machine hum for the sewing machine and couldn't make it work... So much to learn. Good idea though for someone more advanced than me, or me given enough time.

Thank your help anyway~

Everyone else has already said everything I could say, but just clicking the thanks button didn't seem enough for this incredible piece of work! Thanks so very much for thinking of this and then doing such an excellent job of making it!

I get headache when I read long threads, so I just would like to add something referring to your own statements (sorry if anyone else did it already).
To change Pie Menu Strings it seems that it doesn't work just to retype a line, you have to delete everything, commit and save, change to any other property, then come back and rewrite everything again. There's something wrong that keeps the old text no matter if you changed it by your own text.
When I want effectively to change text, I take note of the order the former text was there, delete everything, save the mod, exit, then I open it again and retype my own text. Afterwards the modifications are effective. Hope it helps somehow.
The old piano was normally too addictive. I always wished me a way to make Sims stop using an object as soon as they maximized the referring skill. I thank anyone that has or come to find a way to do this.

Thank you.

absolutely amazing. thankyou a lot! Also, if you do make it so you may weave clothes/rugs/tapestry's, would your sims be able to sell them? Would creativity count, like it does when you paint on the sims?

evip - Sorry, I thought I had answered you. I just sent your response.

Everyone: I hit a huge brick wall on the spinning wheel, did a lot of reading, and found out the "perform" function on musical instruments doesn't work because the instruments do not clone properly if you have any EP's (see atavera's hack and beautiful instruments). SO, I uninstalled all the EP's on my laptop (desktop still has them) and am working on base game versions of the sewing machine and loom and am generally making modifications to better the end result. Think a couple more days, hopefully by the first of next week if all goes well.

Last chance to get in your ideas/opinions before I have them set in "stone"...

Thanks for all your ideas and comments and I hope I give you an item most of you will like!
