I haven't bought a darning foot yet, mostly because there were 3 to choose from and I don't have a quilt sandwich to practice on. I'm curious about FMQ, but not able to try it yet.

I had not before seen a sewing machine that didn't have zig zag on it, though now I realize they also have machines that don't have reverse. I'm learning a TON reading this shop. When the time comes, I hope I'll figure out if it can FMQ or not.

I know Glenn really likes his 66 and can't wait to hear his opinion on FMQ on the 66.
I free motion quilt all the time with my 66.
