Well, I just had a little play with speed. Seems like my width adjuster does not double as speed controller, sadly.
Again, the stupid question: When I upped the speed and slowed my hands I just got lots and lots of little stitches (the bobbin thread is still laying flat, but it would not come out because it is nailed down by a zillion stitches. I don't want to do this because I could never rip anything out, and also I would use a ton of thread!)
Is this what you meant or have I misunderstood? Maybe my definition of slow hands is just waaaaay slow? What sort of stitch length should I be getting?
