That Davis is nice too, but I've never seen on in the flesh to figure them out.

Thank you Joe! I think that 2-tone 301 is really cute too!
Candace, when you FM with your 301's, what hopping/FM foot do you use? I just ordered a darning/FM foot from Sew Classic yesterday. I am curious to try one of the 301's for FM work! Do you have any problems, tricks you can tell me when using the 301 for FM? Do you have a walking foot for the slants? I think I remember you saying the new walking foot does not work right with the slants - something to do with not working with the feed dogs correctly? I want to try FM on the 301, but I also have my Pfaff 1222e that does great with FM - I have done queen sized quilts with it, and I have the Pfaff Grand Quilter with the larger throat space - besides, my long arm. I thought it would be fun to FM small projects with the 301, though!
