My favorite machine, a White Rotary, is a knee pedal, and the other 2 machines in cabinets are the same. Of course the 'workhorse' is my Mom's 1970's Singer with a foot pedal.
If I want to do lots of straight seams I use the White Rotary, if I need to do button holes, zig-zag or blind stitch I use the Singer. If I *really* want to do delicate hand sewing I use my Husband <G>. He has the paitience. Katheryne Costume Content: I'm starting to make a Cavalier outfit for my Husband. He is a suit size 48, waist 48, and he is 5' 11". He's got a commercial pattern but I don't think it goes up to 2X. ----- Original Message ----- > Someone I know has an old cabinet electric with the knee lever > instead of a foot pedal because I can remember using one. > > Annette M _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
