You need to drop feed dogs, put machine on straight stitch at 0. Did the 1+ have a setting for presser foot height? I know you can set pressure. I think you used the hopping darning foot. You should also hoop, or do something to grab the fabric if you don't have an extended table. You can get that new sliding teflon sheet for fabric. I had a 1+ and never did FMQ, but what I remember from the machine - the method for the Pfaff 1475 series is close.
