    What would your "dream" machine be like? Mine would be voice-activated! "Forward", "Reverse"; "Stop"; "Foot up", "Foot Down"; "Needle up, Needle down"; "Press" (a little wooden piece drops down and the fabric goes backwards and the seam gets pressed) and my all time favorite - "Undo"! Unfortunately I have no picture of such a machine!

    I think a sewing machine with a wine storgage system would be great! Each time you have to rewind the bobbin or pull out birds nest, it's an automatic refill!

    mine needs a robot closet on the side or underneath so when the family asks me for something while im sewing, it does it for them without me needing to stop :D

    i want the undo button too :D

    I love my machine now but it would work a lot better if it had a monitor for web surfing!

    I thought of George Clooney with a needle and thread but don't have a picture of that either... and I was talking about machines, wasn't I?

    A never ending bobbin... and instead of a undo button, the ability to over ride me BEFORE I do something that I would later regret LMBO and a built in maid/cook :D:D:D

    Definitely the "undo" button. Must have a never ending bobbin, and little rails that could come up for different seam allowances. Really good light. If we can't have undo - could we at least have automatic seam ripping? And a mirror arrangement so we can see what the bottom piece of fabric is doing.
