Hey Grammy, What is a walking foot and should I get one?
Thank you,

Ms. Shawn...a walking foot is also sometimes called an even feed foot. It feeds the bottom layer of the sandwich through at the same speed as the top. Helps keep from getting wrinkles and puckers in the sandwich as you quilt. The fabric doesn't crawl as much.
