Wouldnt it be fun to have an odometer on your machine so you knew how many miles you have sewn?

I'd be happy with just a bobbin holder that would take a whole spool or cone.

how about a machine that would stop you from making a silly mistake such as putting the wrong strip on!

My husband tracks mine by how many bobbins I empty. Men just naturally want to know things like that I guess.

We need to get together! I was thinking the same exact thing not too long ago! Why can't there be an invention where the bobbin feeds off a spool of thread on the outside so you never need to fill a bobbin! That can be our million dollar invention!
