I strongly suggest that you get the foot pedal checked. You may have a dust bunny hiding or a wonky connection.

I have the presser foot one on my babylock, and oh learn how to use it, It took a bit for me to get used to it but it is so much faster when I am piecing it isn't even funny. I had to start using the foot control with my left though as I tend to go at the same time and the right leg was doing double duty. It frees your hand to line up stuff and all of that, rather than have to reach back, ( I know some now have a putton to up and down the presser foot, the new quilting brother does, I find it really slow though, would drive me nuts)

I have a really old Singer with a handle that fits in the front for a knee control! I love it. I find I do have better control with the knee lever. I may see how I can fit my Janome with a knee control using the foot pedal and mount it on my Koala cabinet.

[quote=kwhite]Good idea Kacie. I did take the foot pedal apart and there is a bar inside there and it seemed sticky. I oiled it and worked it back and forth until it moved freely. So far it hasn't done it today.
When it happened last night it was way late and it did scare the bejabbers out of me. I tend to watch supernatural things when i am in the sewing room. LOL it makes me laugh to think of you all envisioning my machine just stitching all by itself. ROFL. It wouldn't be so bad if it were talented, but it is obviously a beginner so it needs to start it's own projects.[/quote
kw, do you mean you have a tv, or dvd player in your sewing room, and you watch scary stuff...in the basement?
uh-uh!!!! :shock:
