When I lower my feed dogs my quilt smashes and will barely move.(even with no pressure on the foot.) I leave them up and of course lower the pressure one the foot as far as my machine lets me. This is pretty satisfactory for free motion quilting, but I would rather use the slider. (maybe.)
I wonder if your feed dog mechanism needs adjusting. I just took my machine in for her yearly physical and they adjusted her feed dogs. Golly sakes! I don't know what they did but she's running like butter now!
