Ladies I just did a search on this subject, cause I don't want to repeat a question that already has been discussed. I find lately I amhaving the same problems. I only use glue and lots of pins. My question was, can a walking foot go bad ? I don't remember having these problems before. I can't adjust the tension on my machine, so I was thinking maybe the plastic feet are wearing out. Any thoughts? I have a janome and have been using the foot that came with it
