Dolphyngyrl and ManiacQuilter2! (I love your names.)

My machine did come with two 1/4" feet (foots?). One has a metal edge that rides along the fabric but this can be frustrating if you have pins in the fabric, which I often do. I also have a problem keeping the fabric up against the edge. The fabric wants to drift away and I feel as though I am constantly fighting with it. The other foot seems to be "loose". It moves slightly. My solution has been to mark one of the other presser foot with a marking pen and I have had more luck with that. (I know I am the problem!) This "Little Foot" is interesting to me because it also has marks to show you when you are a 1/4" from the bottom (or edge closest to me), which would help greatly when binding.

Thank you both for you interest and comments. I really do appreciate them.
