A couple of years ago my husband and I bought a Singer 9W. We finally go it going yesterday and I can see how it will piece beautifully once you get the hang of the treadle.

I have recently become interested in FMQ quilting and would like to try it out on the 9W. After looking at other posts it looks like I would have to somehow cover the feed dogs and then set the stitch length to zero. Do you also release the pressure on the presser foot?

Also, this machine doesn't include a darning/quilting foot. Does anyone know if one was made for the 9W (or other back clamping Singers)?

Any help is appreciated.
