Graphical user interface virtual handwheel for a controller of a motor

A sewing machine comprising:

• a motor;
• a controller configured to control the motor;
• a needle bar configured to have a needle attached thereto;
• a driveshaft mechanically coupled to the needle bar;
• a circular physical handwheel configured, when physically rotated by a user, to cause the driveshaft to rotate, which causes the needle bar to reciprocate the needle into and out of a fabric;
• an electronic display device;
• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing one or more programs that are configured, when executed, to cause the one or more processors to generate and visually present, on the electronic display device, a graphical user interface (GUI) virtual handwheel, the GUI virtual handwheel including:
• a depiction of the circular physical handwheel that includes a side and a fully-depicted front face and that is:
• oriented with a sideways perspective orientation where a vertical dimension of the depiction is greater than a horizontal dimension of the depiction;
• and
• configured, upon receipt of an input from the user, to send an electronic signal to the controller of the motor to cause the motor to rotate to cause the driveshaft to rotate, which causes the needle bar to reciprocate the needle into and out of the fabric.
