I had pucker issues with my walking foot, too. I finally figured it out & have very few now. Lighten your foot pressure. My normal is 3, I turn it to 1. Try this & see if it works for you better, like it did for me.

I start out the day with great plans, but how quickly things go awry.

My biggest flaw is that I do 50 things at once!

That's one flaw I definitely don't have :!: :!: :!: Even when I finally get it reorganized , I'm sure it will get messy again. However, I will try, I will try, I will try to be neater. I do clean up at the end of each session, but not to a perfect level. I may leave my tools out, albeit in a tidy place, but not put away in drawers where they belong. Now I'm wondering if they belong somewhere else. Maybe putting them in a pretty little basket on the cutting table is OK. They would be picked up, but still handy for the next day or project. Hmmm, gonna think about this.

I certainly have flaws in my work. I am sure that my biggest flaw as a quilter, however, is taking on too many things at once.
