Thomas Saint is the first person to create a sewing machine.
The sewing machine with the foot pedal, also called a foot treadle, was invented by Elias Howe, Jr. Howe was born in Spencer, Massachusetts in July of 1819. He started out working at a textile factory.
When you stop sewing, leave the needle in the fabric, raise the presser foot, and spin the cloth around. When you lower the presser foot, you begin sewing in the same place where you left off, but you are now sewing in a different direction.
You can sell a 1939 sewing machine with cabinet and foot pedal at olx and ebay.
If you go to managemylife.com and enter your model number,385.17824090, it should take you to a page where you can download the manual for your machine. It should tell you how to change your presser foot.
The answer to your question is yes he was granted an American patent in 1851 and it was suggested he take out a patent on the treadle (foot plate) also but it was too late to do this as it had been in use too long. In 1885 Singer also patented the Singer Vibrating Shuttle sewing machine.
