Well maybe I will change the places of my Redeye and my 15-88. Did you drop your feed dogs to FMQ on your 15? I am dying to try FMQing on one of my treadles. I thought the Redeye would be better as it is a little deeper in the throat than the 15-88.

I also have a Singer 9W that I could try, but I am not sure changing the stitch length to zero (as my repair man said) will work either. I tried that and my fabric catches on the feed dogs that are not completely dropped. I will have to loosen the pressure on the foot and loosen the thread tension a lot and try again.
