Woo hoo.. I am rolling now.. Free motion is becoming my friend. I ordered a "big foot" from online and found a darning foot for my not so favorite sewing machine. By yesterday I had two choices..
Big Foot, no matter how much pressure on the foot peddle I am queen of this now ! excited ! This fits either sewing machine too !
Darning needs a lighter touch on the foot peddle and can zig zag. This sewing machine is not my favorite, but it is worth the 13 dollars cost. So, will keep.
Now on to sewing free motion !
Woo Hoo !

Good for you!! Have fun with it.

I am using my Big Foot this morning... I'm doing fm pebble quilting. I like the BF because you can see through it. Happy quilting.

know what you mean. just bought a new machine and darning and big foot as well as a bundle of other goodies included as a bonus. (arrived this morning) Have been playing all afternoon. My first go at any machine quilting ..... haven't had so much fun for ages. :lol:

can you post a picture of this "big foot". I have never heard of such a thing and I FMQ all of my quilts.

Big foot. a chunky plastic foot, attached using the screw at side of machine shank. wide clear plastic view.

The bigfoot is just a very large darning foot - gives a bit more control- a bit easier for novices like me

Can you suggest where online I might look for one? Thanks!

ETA: Oops never mind. Google work well when I use it :mrgreen:

I have NO personal interest in this company.. just where I bought this.. online:
