If you wish to quilt or embroider with your sewing machine, the right foot is a must. For straight-line quilting (and for working with velvets and slippery fabrics) a Walking foot will ensure that the layers do not slip and the end result is satisfactory. Most of my walking feet are new. If you are not sure whether one of these will fit your machine, please Email me.

For free-motion quilting and embroidery, you need a Hopping Foot (also called a Darning or Freemotion foot.) You do NOT need a machine with dropping feed-dogs, nor do you need a modern machine - I quilt and freemotion quite happily on a Singer treadle which has not even discovered reverse, much less anything more sophisticated...
If you have a modern electronic machine you may need to buy the manufacturers foot..check your manual

You can buy modern plastic FM feet anywhere, but I prefer metal ones...
