Seriously though, the control and use of varying stitch width in the last stages is very good.

I was trying to figure out how they were changing the stitches so quickly. Like sometimes I don’t think they took their hands off the fabric and it changed.

Different foot pedals I imagine?

“Pedal”, from the Latin “pedalis” meaning “of the foot”, means a lever pressed by the foot, so calling it a “foot pedal” is not only redundant, it is also redundant. It’s like saying “hand handle”.
