Presser foot control by Welmoed Sisson
The Designer 1 by Viking has a two-height presser foot control, controled by a button on the front panel. Push it once, the presser foot goes up halfway. Push it again, the presser foot goes up a little more. Very nice feature. The D1 doesn't have a "traditional" presser foot lever; you press on...

requests for resource/ service recommendations by She who would like to be obeyed once every Preston
