This is how I sew also.
I just can't stand not feeling like I can control the speed of my machines.
Get some UGLY scrap (medium/large size) and draw some straight, zigzag,
and wavy lines on the fabric and practice foot pedal control. This is what I am
going to do when I start working with teaching my daughter how to sew with
in the next few weeks (she is 31 and FINALLY wanting to learn to sew & quit).
Good luck and hope you find the "happy" foot control speed.
