I too would welcome this, as I hadn't the foggiest idea how sewing machines actually sewed anything until seeing that.
I haven't anything approaching the skill to recreate it, but if somebody does, could they consider making it run a bit slower than that version (if such a thing is possible) to make it even clearer what is happening.

Seeing this was the *first* time I understood how sewing machines do what they do.
So. Anyone think they're good enough with drawing and animation to create a definiltely free content version? Preferably larger.
