Thanks for reminding me about the presser foot pressure adjustment screw. The machine I learned on had it and I've missed it on the newer machines.
In fact, I think that may be why I got so frustrated working on a wall hanging for #5 son back when he was in HS. The top fabric kept getting pushed ahead of the bottom and it came out all wonky several times. Finally got it so it wasn't too bad.
