You need to get a darning foot for your machine if you want to free motion quilt. (Free motion quilting means you drop or cover the feed dogs and move the quilt sandwich around yourself.)
A walking foot works great for straight lines. To use a walking foot, though, you leave the feed dogs up or uncovered and let the machine feed the quilt. You can make gently curving lines with a walking foot by directing the quilt sandwich.
For tight curves, you need to use free motion (covered feed dogs and a darning foot).
