I have a Brother XR 9000 sewing machine. I want to try QAYG and to use the stippling stitch on this sewing machine. The book that came with the machine says to use the J - foot. But I was wondering if I could use the walking foot instead to help with the thickness of the quilt sandwich? Does anyone know if this is OK to do? I don't want to break a needle or mess up my machine.

When I do stippling, I use a darning foot. The walking foot would not allow you to move the fabric under the needle and get the stippling patterns going.

Yes a darning foot and FMQ foot are the same :D:D:D

most people put the dogs down to do their freemotion quilting.

I am just learning to do this to, I also have a brother machine, I think you can use your walking foot if you do straight lines eg. stitch in the ditch. I am about to find out!

I have the XR9000, and have wondered the same thing.
When I stippled with that it was wayyyy miniscule. I thought I could use it for filler on some small blocks, but, boy, it would take lots of time. Let me know... |
