Walking Foot
#1
I was having some trouble with shifting of my fabric so I bought a walking foot for my sewing machine. Well now I have new problems. The stitches are real small, so I increased the stitch length and that didn't seem to resolve the problem. Did I waste my money buying this walking foot? :(

You also have to decrease the foot pressure when using a walking foot. My Viking goes down to 3 for instance, from the normal sewing pressure of 6. That would affect stitch length because of the change in drag like Moonpi mentioned..

If it is the correct foot for your machine, take it off and reattach it and see if that helps. I know it sounds silly but sometimes this works, especially when threading a machine, but I think it might apply here too.

I am using a Singer sewing machine and I ordered the foot directly from Singer for the model of the machine I have, so I know I have the right foot. I will try again by adjusting the pressure. Thanks for the advice. :?
