Similarly, if you don't have a straight stitch walking foot for your 201 and 15, the walking foot teeth are not meeting up with the feed dogs and aren't helping much. The correct tools for the job help immensely. Sew Classic carries the straight stitch walking foot for the 15 and 201. http://shop.SEW-CLASSIC.COM/Low-Shan...tch-P60400.htm
I ordered my walking feet for those machines from sew-classic so I am pretty sure that the foot is matching up with the feed dogs. I am just wondering where the pressure bar needs to be set. Do you screw it all the way down or half way or is it nearly close to the top
