thanks.
I think you may be talking about a walking foot. that is used to feed several layers of fabric through the machine evenly. The foot that is used for free motion quilting is often called a darning foot. What type of machine do you have? If you can check with your dealer and explain what you want to do with it.
There's also one out there called the "Big Foot" used for free motion quilting. Walking foot is more for straight line sandwiches though.
