It does have a lever that pulls the throat plate up and I wondered if that's what it is there for.

Feed Dogs on Singer 401A and Singer 221

I only have these two machines and it doesn't look like I can drop the feed dogs on either one of these for free motion quilting. Is there a way to disengage them?

Audsgirl, Bonnie has a tutorial on her website about 1/4 inch seams and shows you how to use an old card taped down for more accurate seams. It really helped me a lot.

Table runner pattern?

Do you know the name of this pattern and where I might find it? I just love the layout, but would probably make a mess with it if I tried to figure it out on my own. Thanks!
