Janome has the traditional Darning Foot for FMQ. PLUS a special FMQ foot with three interchangeable feet!

The joy of this special foot is that there is NO hopping ..... PLUS you can adjust the distance between the foot and the quilt sandwich, so that the sandwich just slides nicely between the foot and the machine bed. As Goldilocks would say ... not too loose and not too tight!

I detested FMQing and once I tried this foot, I knew I would soon come to enjoy the process.
And now am working on developing then mastering, my FMQing abilities!
I also purchased this FMQ foot for my 6600 along with the bobbin case made for FMQ. Love them both! I was having terrible "eyelashes" on the back of my quilts until I used the new bobbin case. Now if I could just get my hand speed and needle speed to come together, I would be a happy camper!!
