Check out the links above to Leah Day. She explains how to modify a hopping (spring action) foot so it doesn't hop any more.

Thank you for asking this question. I didn't understand what she meant. Lynn

MarionQuilts, I’m happy you have found what works best for you and just wanted to reply that your parrot project is wonderful.

Thanks all! I'm so glad I complained to my friend LOL ... it turned out for the best for me, and I was able to share a better method (hopefully) for other people - so nice to know I wasn't the only one struggling with the spring action!
