I agree. If the machine & it's computer are doing all the work then why not just buy it? Where is the skill/talent in that. Makes you appreciate the extensive skills the older generation had when they could not afford to purchase fancy dresses and had to rely on their skill/ talent to create them. My aunts who were seamstresses used to think using a pattern was cheating. I can just imagine what they would think of the computerized machines out these days. I am a vintage gal. I prefer working on my skills in lieu of fighting a computer. 😄
