    thanks for your reply. I think that the dual feed foot is the walking foot for the Horizon. I will check to see if I can adjust the needle bar height.

    Exclamation I will never use red and maroon fabric in a quilt again!

    I have driven myself crazy trying to get these fabrics to quit bleeding. I have used different rinses and color catchers. Any other advice on how to deal with these colors?

    Question What decorative stitches do you use when machine binding?

    I have just spent 3 hrs binding a quilt by machine. I am worn out trying to get a semi straight stitch . What are some decorative stitches people use other than the zig zag?
