I have never had a walking foot to use on my sandwiches. Just a lot of determination!:lol: My new machine came with a walking foot. I tested it on a small sandwich and it was soooooo nice. !!!!!! Good luck. Regards, Dorothy |
Nothing beats a walking foot. You can get everything right in the "sandwich" , pin like crazy , have built the perfect "sandwich" and the machine can still "feed" the different layers through a regular foot at differnent rates causing the pleats, puckers and disappointment.
If you have not invested in a walking foot ... maybe its time ! It was a life changing gismo! |
I love basting spray. It keeps everything in place as I quilt. I do still baste around the edges though. If anything slips it will be there.

I am wondering if anyone has a walking foot for a Pfaff Holly 1200 quilter you would like to sell?

also look on eBay. I don't know anything about Pfaff, but someone here might know- alot of machines use generic feet just fine. I would post in the classified section that you are looking for one...
