So many having tension issues (including me) and I thought if more men used these machines I am sure the machines would be designed differently so you just flicked a switch to change the tension needs for the weight of the cotton or have 2 different tension disks on the machine... In an ideal world lol

I would definitely make pink machines. I think the market place is missing a new, pink machine.

The Brother that's like one I have, now comes with a choice of decals to put across the top front in pink and two other choices.

And the bobbin would hold an entire spool not just a small disk. They wouldn't be stopping and changing these things so often.

I'd like a machine that would fill a bobbin while you were sewing. Why can't they put an extra path way for the thread to be wound up on another bobbin while sewing?
