I'm with all who would like to 'suck' at FMQ and I too loose connection with my machine when the feed dogs drop and I also have a fabric mover and stitch regulator....I've tried lots of the tips from the board and other sites and still no success. I think part of is that I feel like I am going to make a mess and fail and therefore, I do.
