Help!!!! supreme slider
 
I just bought a supreme slider and I also have an extension table for my machine. I went to change my bobbin thread and I lifted up my table so I could see what I was doing, forgetting that the slider was there. Well when I lifted the table the hole in the slider went over my free motion foot. It didn't tear thank goodness but it seem to stretch it so it doesn't lay completely flat where the hole is. Has anyone done this and does it go back in shape. Please, please tell me that it will.:(

I've seen some quilters who cut a hole in their supreme slider so that they don't have to
keep lifting it to change the bobbin. You could remove the slider and put it on a table
with two heavy books. That might flatten it back.

Maybe use a hair dryer to heat it a little, then let it cool into the shape, maybe with a little help somehow?

I would remove the foot and needle, lay a piece of waxed paper over the boo boo and put a book over it overnight. The reason I suggest the waxed paper is so the book doesn't stick or transfer any colour to your slider.

Great idea, Tartan!

Soak in hot water and lay it flat. Mine was manhandled by a two year old and that worked for me.
