I wonder if anyone here uses the "Quilt Wizard." It's the foot that you put a plastic thingie on that creats a perfect quarter inch seam. It also has a plastic thingie that helps make "stitch in the ditch" quilting a breeze, according to the ad.
I bought one after seeing a demo at the NQS show years ago. I never used it and came upon it when I was cleaning up my quilting room. Has anyone used it? Is it as great as they say? Should I try it or just get rid of it? I haven't heard it mentioned here.

Well I am seeing people liking and using some stuff that others thought useless. Maybe time to sell some stuff?

I took my Sidewinder apart (couple of screws) and put in a piece of heavy iron I found in DH's shop. There is a lot of empty space inside it. It doesn't move anywhere or tip over. And it winds so much smoother. If something doesn't work like I want it to I try to find out why not and modify what it needs.
Do you think a few fishing or drapery weights could be super glued in and do the same job??
