I feel so stupid at the same time!
Look at what my machine can do:
I have been complaining that my machine won't do anything but straight lines, that I couldn't do free motion quilting...
Well, today I sat down with my machine's manual (I have had this machine for 5 years) and read all about the optional accessories available.
I figured out that the embroidery foot and the walking foot were available as extras. I even called the parts department to make sure they were for sale still.
Then, I actually found the embroidery foot in my set! I tried it right away, following the directions in the manual - which taught me how to lower the dogs (something I thought my machine couldn't do!)..and voila! free motion quilting!!!
I will now need to practice and learn more about free motion quilting. I am so excited and upset with myself at the same time for not figuring this out earlier!!
