Joe I agree with Nancy. I find it just as easy to piece with a treadle and it is better for me I seem to have better control of the 1/4 seams. I do use the two spools when piecing a large quilt it can hold lots of bobbin thread in the can. The 319 is also great to treadle when piecing. But then again I have been using a treadle for 40 + years and it comes natural for me. Like Nancy said you need to practice. At the moment I am trying to finish three quilts started. So much to do with little time.
BTW Nancy how to you like sewing with the Jones HC? I like mine and easy to use.
