I am a beginner quilter and want to learn to quilt my own small quilts. I have a Brother SE-400 that I love. I bought the open toe quilting foot (darning foot) and today I started trying to learn. I bought the Brother foot that is recommended for my machine so I know I have the right foot. I have my stitch length set to 0 as recommended. My feed dogs are down. I'm trying to move the fabric but it doesn't seem to move as easily as I think it should. My stitches are jagged. It almost seems like the presser foot is pressing down too much? I know it takes a while to learn FMQ but something just doesn't seem right. I would appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance
