When you are doing something like hst's where you are not sewing along the edge of the fabric, do you remove the foot and put a regular foot on? Or can you sew with the blade running ACROSS the fabric?
I hope you understand what I am trying to ask...LOL.
Are you asking about trying to use the foot if you make HST's from squares? If so, no I don't use the 1/4" foot with the blade on the side. I do use a narrow-edge foot that has a blade but it is in the center of the foot (some call it a stitch-in-the-ditch foot).
If I make HST's from bias cut triangles, then I do use my 1/4" foot with the blade.
I'm not sure this explanation helped. I think I just confused myself. :roll:
