Good advice from "Stitchnripper. I have several feet--all different in some way--perhaps you can do adjustment on the generic to raise or lower the foot. Is there a little grooved disk near the top of the foot? that you can spin to make the foot position diff? I like my foot to just 'graze' the top of the quilt..and adjustment has to be made according to batting thickness. Don't despair--there is a solution, and it might be in the original!
