I've been in a quilting slump, but this morning I made myself attach my walking foot and sew some seams in a pillowcase I had cut out for my grandson. I know that the walking foot is designed to keep the fabrics from moving, but when does one really improve the finished product. Strip quilts? SID?

A walking foot is designed to keep the bottom layer and the top layer moving along at the same pace. Think of a walking foot as an upper set of feed dogs.
I use mine for just about everything but FMQ, where feed dogs are not needed.
