Hello Debbie,
Undo the foot control, take out the suppressor that looks like a small fuse and discard it, you don't need it.

pedal smoke sew

I don't know sewing machines but I know enough to know that there's no fuse in the pedal and broken fuses seldom smoke. Have seen several similar problems reported on here and the experts always say it's a blown up capacitor - a relatively simple and cheap fix for someone confident with capacitors.

Good luck...
