I found I got distracted when using the plastic hopping foot. You mentioned that it took you a bit of time to adjust to it so I was hoping to be able to adjust something to stop it or minimise the hopping. I use the spring foot free motion setting on my machine so feed dogs are down. I'll check that setting with my plastic foot and see how it goes. Thanks for replying so quickly!Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03701074505999066911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1429435155401920089.post-43538108990641072162017-02-11T21:19:19.183+10:302017-02-11T21:19:19.183+10:30Not sure I understand your email address...have yo...Not sure I understand your email address...have you lowered your feed dogs? You could try to alter the pivot height to -1 and see whether that makes a difference.Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07686641496335692071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1429435155401920089.post-25279671475255516062017-02-11T21:09:07.919+10:302017-02-11T21:09:07.919+10:30Hi.

If the hopping gets too distracting, is there a way to alter the foot to stop it from jumping? email: thequiltyarn"at"karab"dot"co (not .com) thanks for such a great blog by the way :) KaraKarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03701074505999066911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1429435155401920089.post-70054629553330185512016-05-16T19:36:09.456+09:302016-05-16T19:36:09.456+09:30Thanks Brenda...I would be interested to hear abou...Thanks Brenda...I would be interested to hear about the Westalee foot.

I have the QE 4.0 and use the original clear square spring motion foot that came with it so I can see where I am going. I also have the modified ankle. My quilting improved quite a bit when I started using it. I have also had sucess with the Westalee ruler foot. It's nice to follow another Pfaff user.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14992086542634501995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1429435155401920089.post-49204592769162952752016-05-12T16:04:09.282+09:302016-05-12T16:04:09.282+09:30As always Karin your posts are so informative quit...As always Karin your posts are so informative quite apart from the inspirational work you do. I'd never heard of a modified ankle so must seek that out as visibility is so key. But like you I use my Dynamic 6 D far more than the open toed Spring foot for the same reason. I'm doing a large practice piece for my 6 month fmq course and will definitely switch over just to remind myself of the difference. And also research where I can get a modified ankle....<br /><br />(I've been an 'unaware no reply blogger' for a while! Wretched thing seems to magically reset my settings.
