Well, I did it, but I couldn't get a photo. It's overcast with intermittent rain, so I couldn't get a photo in the sunshine. (My good camera doesn't do well in less than perfect light and I didn't want to set up the artificial lights since there was really nothing to see).

I couldn't tell the difference in it while stitching two layers of cotton. I started with 6 stitches per inch going moderate speed, then made a mark, sped up to full speed, then went back to moderate speed - no visible difference. It repeated it a 8 stitches and again at 10 inches - still no visible difference

Actually, it must have been the feed dogs (and I didn't realize it wasn't fully up when I checked it), or it was the fabric I was sewing. I was quilting a quilt with a Minkie backing when I noticed it. (I had to rip out a section and it was a bear.)

Thanks, Joe for your help. Now I know what to look for.

PS: I just figured it out. A slant shank walking foot has to be modified to work on a 301. It was probably that the walking foot couldn't keep up with the feed dogs.

Thanks again.
