Yesterday I tried out my Curve Master for the first time (it's been sitting in its original box since I got it at a quilt show last spring). I am making Rob Peter to Pay Paul blocks (cut with the Accuquilt Go!). On my Janome 6600, the seam was coming out a lot less than 1/4", although that doesn't seem to be a huge problem (still irons flat, and I trim the block). Maybe I need to keep moving the needle to the left, but I'm wondering if I'm using the wrong guide for the edge of the fabric.

I really couldn't see what the difference is with the Curve Master foot...except that it has a short toe (?) in front of the needle so you can guide the upper fabric at a greater angle? Does that sound right? Anyway, I tried using my normal open toe foot (good visibility) and seemed to get the same results. As in the other video mentioned...

Am I missing something? I still have LOTS of blocks to do :-)
