    Default Sweet 16 sit down sure foot

    Has anyone purchased this item and what do you or don't you like about it. It is pricey and you must also buy the install kit. Although it does come with a couple of extra feet and there are other feet that can be used with it. It would really make ruler work a lot easier.

    I haven't really seen the need for the Sure Foot - I use rulers a lot on my Sweet 16 sitdown and never any problems with running over a ruler.

    I’ve had an HQ S16 for close to 7 years and have never heard of this and I do a lot of ruler work, mostly with HQ rulers

    I just ordered one with my Christmas money. Hasn’t come yet but I’m not totally happy with using rulers with the regular foot. If I were not doing sit down I wouldn’t have gotten it.

    bjchad, I would be very interested in hearing about how this foot works for you. I like to do ruler work on my sweet16 and can see where this one would be helpful.

    When it comes and I have a chance to work with it a little, I’ll report on it.

    I think that the HQ Sure Foot will be easy to work with. I have watched and researched and am pretty sure that I will be purchasing one. I plan on doing some fancy ruler work with thicker batting and this will make it much easier plus HQ makes other feet that can be interchanged. Thanks for the input that you have given me. I will let everyone know how I like it.

    looks like this foot fits all the HQ quilting machines, and it's relatively new as I watch for the new toys HQ comes out with. I'm considering getting one for my Fusion.
