Stitch Length
#15
I like to use my stitch length at 3.0 when doing straight lines. I use the walking foot. I think it is a good length. When I free motions with the darning foot I try to do about the same length of stitch, in fact I just leave it at that length until I start to piecing again for I use that length to sew the binding on.

I think it is about 11-12

The Viking has a walking foot you can buy to attach for quilting. In case you have puckers it may be worth the investment. A nice taut sandwich and a walking foot can make a big difference.
