    What foot are you using to FM? Is it the (Q) foot for embroidery? Maybe thats why you are having a hard time with it..............Michele

    I got mine from Amazon.com. I looked up the numbers on the brother site and then went to Amazon, saved a lot of money that way on Brother feet.

    Yes, I just looked and I think you are right. I have had 2 Brother machines and one has a Q on it and the other that looks very similar has no notation. So, I think I'll go online and see if I can find the O foot and give that a try.

    Thank you to everyone.

    I ordered the "O" foot and hope this will solve the problem. As soon as I read everyone's posts I went back to my owner's manual and sure enough it states that the O foot you need for free motion quilting is an option.

    dam1,
    Where did you order your foot from? How was the price? Michele

    I ordered it from allbrands.com and think it was a little expensive at $35, but gotta have it! I think it was about the same price at brother.com.
