Nursie,
Thank your for the explanation. Is there a special way to turn on Mode 2 or is it automatic? I have always used the foot pedal but would like to try this new mode. I must confess, I passed on the demo thinking I would try the machine on my own and then go to the "learning class" at a later. However, I have not gone to this class, as I have had two incidences of stress fractures (several weeks apart) as well as another six weeks in the cast when two bones did not heal. Later, I broke another bone. -- I have learned to sew using my left foot. One cannot stay away from quilting.
