    Since there were so many questions today on curved seams, I'd like to know whether any of you have used the Cure Master presser foot. If so, did you like it or not? Thanks.

    I bought one a couple of years ago but couldn't get the hang of it. I watched the inventor use one over and over again in person, then when I got home I went on YouTube and watched video over and over again. They make it look so easy, but I struggled.

    I have one and love it. I haven't used it in years when it first came out, but I made a drunkard's path quilt with it a number of years ago and it worked out really nice. I had to try it on some scrap fabric before making the quilt tho. That quilt is still up in the closet waiting to be finished. I tried to miter the corners on it but at that time I did not know how to do it. I may have to get it down one of these days and work on it, now that I know how to miter the corners. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay

    I DID try it but found that using my 1/4" foot with guide on it, actually worked just the same. Honestly, I regret buying it. That was $30.00 I could have had for more fabric. Grrrrr!!
    That is just IMHO. I've heard others really like it.

    i had one and it was no better than doing it without one. the method is the same as with a regular foot. i sold mine at a loss.

    I have one, and it's of no use to me. I have better luck just using my regular 1/4" foot. Wish I'd saved the money.

    I tried it a long time ago and it broke on about the third day. It could have been me using it wrong but that would be really hard.

    I found using the old fashioned straight pin method the easiest and best for me, way to do curves. No cost either.
    peace :D
