I know the Viking walking foot is about $100. I just went on eBay to see if I could find one less expensive and I found several for under $50 and they were the Viking brand.

Yikees! That alot of fabric!

When machine quilting, I set mine about 3.5. That includes Q4K.

If you are doing SID, why would you want the feed dogs down, unless you are using your fm attachment. My Viking came with a walking foot, but it was a used one so that is probably why.

I wasn't doing SID. I just wanted to make sure the feed dogs weren't suppose to be down; I didn't think they were except for free motion. My machine was used also. I have the guide bar, but not the walking foot.
