When I do SITD sewing I use either the Walking foot or 1/4" foot foot without the guide 'cause the seam is the guide I follow. Reducing the speed of the machine helps with acurate sewing. I have found that spray basting works with any kind of machine quilting and have never had a problem. Some basting sprays leave more reside than others so I always have some nail polish remover and Q-tips on hand to wipe the presser foot and needle if basting glue accumulates on them.

Could some one please discribe a SITD foot? I have never heard of it. Thanks
