That's an idea whose time has come! Come on sewing machine people, do something! I firmly believe that many products are developed by people who don't use them ie. sewing machines are developed by people who don't sew and don't have to try to manipulate around tight spaces, use a screw driver in the left hand when you're right handed, try to see with those miserable lights that don't shine enough light to make a difference, and on and on!!!! hee hee
