When this world was less hurry up, I sewed on machines without reverse and never thought about not having a reverse function or a needle up/down function. We just manually turned the handwheel to put the needle down in the fabric and turned the item to stitch back over a just sewn line or in a different direction. These days, I want those functions at the touch of a button. We never would have imagined that someday those old machines would be sought after and prized.
