I just bought a new Viking Sapphire and you do not have to unthread the needle to wind a bobbin. Now if it would just learn to talk and tell me I have sewn an entire seam without any bobbin thread!

give it time.

Heck we may end up with sewing machines with no feet pedal in the future(and as I type this I bet someone will tell me they exist).

Or we can just set the material in, and say sew seam and it'll do that work. That though may take the fun out of it though
Yes, as you type, I will tell you that one of my machines used to work with the pressure of my knee against a handle that was attached to the front of the machine...
