Excellent video! Very easy to see the details & very simply demonstrated! I love the bit at the end. Very helpful!
Thank you 😊
This video was most helpful, thank you so very much. I have been contemplating getting a presser foot for my Janome but wasn't reassured just by looking at a still picture of a presser foot because I thought there was no way it was going to fit. What I didn't realize was the whole thing needed to come off! Many thanks again.
You're welcome 🙂
Thank you for making such an easy tutorial to follow
This was great for a quick refresher, also the reminder about increasing stitch length. Thank you.
Brilliant - I did exactly what I was told and it worked - this doesn't always happen so a BIG THANK YOU for the tutorial.
I was so worried about attaching the walking foot to my Janome thank you so much you made it easy to do ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😊😊😊
its always esy when someone show you how - enjoy x
I've done it. It is fantastic I put off for a long time before buying one. Many thanks ❤
@@patriciahobson6320 It is an amazing tool - well worth the investment x
Thank you so much for sharing such a simple instruction. I am not mechanically inclined so this video helped a lot.
You're welcome Beverly, sometimes it just helps to be shown something 😊
Total life saver, thank you!!!
Thank you for sharing this! 🌸 It’s been a while since I attached mine and needed instructions! 😊
It is is a funny foot to attach :)
Brilliant! I've been trying to sew leather, and this will do the trick! Thank you SO much!!
Perfect video, thank you! Completely clear (and short) instructions, fab😊
Thank you ☺️
Thank you so much
Thanks Rachael - you are so clear and easy to understand !
Thank you x
Very Clear and thank you for taking the trouble to publish
Thank you :)
Thank you. Needed quick help!!
Ive got a walking foot for my new janome
It's a great foot for quilting, and also for thick fabrics and slippery fabrics... enjoy :)
Thank you!!
Video saved my sanity today! Darned instruction book has ZERO instructions for this foot!!!
Yes, sometimes I think you just need to be shown 😀
👏🏻🌲
I bought one for my machine to do my car seats. 1 measly layer of vinyl and 1/2 scrim. I have been trying for days to get even top stitches. If I don't pull the material, it doesn't even move
Thank you!
just got the 6650 - great, clear, easy instruction! thanks for the reminder on stitch length being increased. Do you have a recommended length to go to?
Yes, I usually go to 3 😃
Nice machine, I've got a horizon 8600😃
Do you think that this will help me keep my fleece from stretching so much? I am going to put it as a backing on a blanket
it may do... the important thing is to baste the layers thoroughly and make sure nothing pulls while you are stitching - only stitch a couple of inches at a time, move the whole piece on, and keep the rest of the work supported. Good Luck :)
I installed walking foot on janome s3 skyline , but it's not sitting on the the needle plate, it higher .
Hi Gayana - did you buy the walking foot with the machine? - it sounds like you have the wrong foot to me.... it should be a high shank foot...
Hi Rachel I’ve been looking how to fit this type of walking foot, but I have a problem my machine dose t have anywhere to attach n bar to. Any help please xx
Hi Wendy - can you send me a photo? Rachel@sewhappy.co.uk
Hi Rachel😳😔😞😳 I am embarrassed to admit when I put the foot on and fiddled with the stitching and my needle was positioned on the left. Nowhere in my very thick manual does it tell me how to change needle position, it was more luck than judgment it moved over to middle position. The safest would be if I could move the needle to the right. Thank you. Hugs xx
He Wendy @@WendysCraftDen you can move the needle position by altering your stitch width... its the button with the zigzag motif... or it could be your stitch setting, - on some machines there are various needle positions preset, eg the 1/4" stitch moves the needle to the right... hope this helps Rach x
@@patchworkquiltingclassestv9084 Ho Rachael I will try that later on thank you maybe I need to down load the hundreds of pages manual. I would have thought it would have been I the basic manual. I have had machines in the past and it’s basic instructions. Thank you for your help. Xx
My needle bar is very short
it should still be ok - its only the little white bit that's on the lever that needs to go over the needle bar :)
What is the purpose of the metal bar that comes with it?
That's to help you stitch parallel lines... The longer edge clicks into the slot at the back of the foot, leaving the shorter edge sticking out over the fabric... I'll sort another video out to show you 😄
@@patchworkquiltingclassestv9084 thanks for explaining. I can probably do without attaching that as I normal stitch in the ditch.
What is the best stitch length to use?
Hiya - I tend to quilt with a stitch length of 3.5... remember to stitch about 6" at a time then move the whole thing forward to stop your work dragging :)
@@patchworkquiltingclassestv9084 Thank you!
Any advice on why my bobbin thread won't pickup?
Hi Catherine, check you've got the bobbin in the right way round - and your needle is secure, and rethread the whole machine... it shouldn't be anything to do with the walking foot. Have you checked without the walking foot?
Also, I'd clean out the bobbin race - it may just be a bit of fluff, or a stray fragment of thread... :)
Thank you! What about the little metal bar that comes with the walking foot. What is it for?
Its to help you stitch parallel lines - I'll do a video :)
@@patchworkquiltingclassestv9084 did you do a video? I’m not sure how to attach it
@@karenbadger9311 ah not yet - it's on my list 😁
How u install the guide?
I'll have to do a video 😃
