Quilt in a Day Forums

I have one of those calendars with quilting tips for each day of the year.

Todays says: """If you have a leather roller foot for your machine, try using it for invisible machine applique and for free-hand machine quilting. Thr roller allows smooth movement and transitions for sharp turns and tight curves but still regulates stitch length"""

Does this really work???? I don't have that foot but would be interested if anyone has tried it and their results.

I'm not quite sure what a leather roller foot is. Never heard of it. Sounds interesting though.

I have never heard of this foot. I am interested in how it would work.

I have a leather rolling foot. It does work for applique or quilting. You can't turn sharp corners, however. You still have to put the needle down, raise the presser foot, turn fabric or quilt, etc.
I used a zipper foot for applique before. That worked surprisingly well. I needed a really small foot, and that's the smallest foot I have. Try it!

Thanks for the input furryball3!
Tomorrow I have to be at the Bernina store so I'll check it out and see what they cost and if I think I really need one!!! how silly of me! of course I do!!! LOL

That's a good tip, furry
