Tina:
Last month, at MAQF, I bought a 1/4" foot with a guide (like a rudder) on
the side. It is FANTASTIC! I paid about $25.00 and it was worth every penny.
I had purchased a similar foot for Pfilomina Pfaff, at the recommendation of
one of our RCTQ gang (probably Jennell,) so I knew it was a good thing. I
also recommend the reprinted manuals by Nancy Johnson Srebro, as they
contain lots of good information in addition to the basic manual. NAYY.

Good luck with your lovely new FW,
PAT in VA/USA

I got to sew a little bit on it last night (I don't want to use it
much until I get some sewing machine oil) and I can finally understand
why people are so attached to these machines.

I've had Bernina's before, and thought they made a perfect straight
stitch, but this FW just blows them away. The stitch is tight, the
tension is perfect, it is wicked fast, and it sews so STRAIGHT. That
narrow feed dog really, really makes a difference. I got a Little Foot
for it, and the practice seams I made were just so ridiculously
perfect.
