Ok you all, I got a free motion foot for my 15-88 treadle. I lowered the feed dogs with the thumb screw that is near the bobbin casing. I am trying to FMQ now on a Halloween 'cheater' panel. I am having a blast, but I am making a mess of a stitch. I loosened the presser on the foot with that top of the head screw, but I can't figure out where to put the stitch regulator? This 15-88 actually has a a stitch regulator that goes from 30 to 6. I am not sure if I should have it at either end? Would that help my stitch? On my Pfaff Grand Quilter I put the stitch on 0 that way I can control the length -- on this treadle it doesn't seem to matter, but my stitch is really tiny and icky? Any suggestions from you more experienced treadlers?

I realize part of the problem is my treadling, but any help would be appreciated.
