    This is almost a disaster! But since it gives you an opportunity to go to a fabric store or shop on line for a new foot, it averts disaster status.

    Rita guess that's what happens from putting the pedal to the metal *L* bummer that you didn't get it finished..A new foot should be cheaper than a new machine.

    I absolutely agree with your plan to buy a new machine, You can't trust a machine that just decides to throw in the "foot" anytime it pleases! Have fun shopping and let us know what you end up with,

    With all the foot jokes, I just to have to say, gone on, jump in with both feet and buy a new machine! :lol:
