I did it, and it worked fine with my faggoting stitch. I did manually do a few stitches to make sure it was clearing the foot, it did come very close to the edge. By the way, the faggoting stitch works real nice for a SID.

I have been experimenting using the pre programmed embroidery stitches on my machine for quilting. I use my walking foot. You need to make sure that the space in the foot has a larger opening like the zigzag foot. I will use the hand wheel very slowly to make sure the stitches fit within the space on the walking foot before I start. The needle will probably break before the foot would if it doesn't fit.

and.....as long as a decorative stitch moves forward it will work. you may need slow down. the walking foot can't go backwards.

Interesting. Now I need to take a look at my machine and it's walking foot to see if I can do decorative stitches with it.

I use it all the time fot decorative stitches!

I do that every so often too! I want to kick myself everytime.
I have a brother machine and there is an open toe walking foot available that will accomadate up to a 5mm wide stitch.
I believe the instructions do say "straight and zigzag"but it was advertised as for decorative stitching. I use it for dec. stitching with no problems.

Excellent advice! I'd be brave after checking out all the parts put on an old needle and thread up. Be sure to go slowly at first.

I use mine for zig zag and any stitches that don't require a backward motion.
I make sure that I use the hand wheel to check that the design in narrow enough to fit within the space of the foot :D:D:D
