That is so funny!! The other day a friend of mine (& quilting mentor) was helping me and I was using her older machine. She wanted me to test it out and get used to it before I started sewing on it. So I sewed a little, I was going fast and slowing down trying to get a feel for the foot pedal. Well I decided I was done but the machine kept going! I yelled for my friend and when she walked into the room I had both hands and feet in the air and the machine was still going! She said the foot pedal just got stuck because it hasn't been pushed that far down in a while!!!
