This kind of reminds me of when I took a beginner's embroidery class a few years ago. We were doing a quilt in the hoop project. The teacher told me I was sewing too fast and that I really didn't want to break my thread as then I'd have to line back up the design and all . . . I said that was no big deal and he gave me the "look" and moved the stitch selector to "slow".
He wouldn't know that I have an LA and I have to line up the pattern with the stitching all the time, so when I've had to do it with the embroidery machine, it's no big deal.
