Sewing speed
#1
I can't seem to control the speed of my sewing machine. A friend suggested I make sure I'm never wearing shoes when I sew (Hi, Ann!), but I still can't manage to sew slowly. Any suggestions? Is there something about a dimmer switch??

It could be you or the foot pedal.
You might want to try using the pedal upside down, of a nonslide surface, and pretend you are driving your car through road construction.
Your local sewing machine repair person should be able to tell you if it is a pedal problem.

My Brother has the speed control on the front and I try to leave it in the middle , as I tend to be a pedal masher :shock: LOL
If you don't have that adjustment , try using your opposite foot so you don't press as hard ?

I don't know how to put the link in this message, but the title of the post you may be looking for is "Dimmer Switch....Who knew?" and it was posted on August 4th of this year.
Go to the top of this page where it says "Search". Type in "dimmer switch" and you'll see the post.
