    How ironic that this happened to me a while back but differently. I too have MS and was ready to stitch and go. Well the machine didn't run. I checked the power cord, the light was on but kept hitting the pedal. Finally I realized I wasn't hitting the table but the "foot" of the table leg!

    :XD: That is so funny, hope the dog wasn't hurt and has a sense of humor. I have the same problem with MS, can't even FIND the footpedal without locating it first by eye.
