Comments on Quilt Slant

From: Debbie Bain, dbbe@bestweb.net Bought off ebay from sewingetc.com, described as "Patchwork Quilting Foot/ Singer 301, 401, 500" for her slant-needle 401A, but on that, and on the FW it makes the needle jam when it goes down into the bobbin case.

Debbie B's quilting foot for a slant needle machine e.g. a 301, 401, 500; the right side of the foot (the smaller part is 1/4", the back part of the side is 1/2" so more of the foot sits on the fabric. For those doing smaller seams, the left side front is 1/8" and think the back of it is 1/2 or 3/8. The markings on the side of the foot are 1/4" increments in front and behind the needle.

When machine quilting straight lines the bar helps guide, once one line of reference is drawn.

Thanks Pat B, Anne, Barbara, Nancy, Jacqui
