I posted a few weeks ago asking about the walking foot that came with my new Janome that my mom bought me. I had never used one and was a bit confused. After some help from the generously kind folks on this board I am now addicted to using that foot. For me it has made a world of difference with alignment and precision. I am fairly new to quilting so everything fascinates me still but I rank the walking foot pretty high up the wow scale.
