I thought that with the open toe, I might be able to see what I was doing better. Or aren't you supposed to be watching that part? Maybe I should focus on where I want to go next instead. I have the walking foot for straight stitching. Maybe I should try working with that and the embroidery foot first and get used to them. I didn't think about being able to get caught in spots with the open toe foot, but it makes sence.
