SCANT part that I'm messing up. With the 1/4 inch foot, there's not much room to move my needle over. Do I need to change my foot? I'm at my wit's end here. Can anybody give me any advice? I"ve done the search here and nothing seems to 'click' with me. Hellllllp! Please.
I have the same machine...I use the 1/4" foot with the flange with the accufeed system and set my stitch width to 6.0 and my stitch length to 2.0. Make sure your needle clears the foot by turning the wheel by hand to test it. When I use these settings my blocks are spot on..
