The springs I ordered are a series of full round coils that go clear around the needle, getting larger from top to bottom, with the bottom coil that touches the fabric probably about 1/8" across. I think it would be hard to get your finger under that coil. But I'll take pics when I get it so you all can see. I may be way off, since I don't even have the thing yet. But I want it for my 15 in treadle to FMQ with, so that's why I bought it. I'll be giving a friend of mine the 2nd one I bought. She's much into FMQ on her fancy Bernina.
