It was the craziest thing - I was so surprised when they showed it to me. I am looking at Janome and Brother and am still undecided. But this was a feature on the Brother. I tried the VQ2400/3000 units, and the "higher level" machines like them have it too.
Thank you for your thoughts on this. I've yet to make any kind of bag, but they are something I'd like to try eventually, and so far don't do much in the way of garments either. Not sure it is a feature that would sway me one way or the other, but sounds like it would be useful in certain situations.
