Hi Monique, I'm not sure what kind of darning foot you have, but this video might be helpful. It is Leah Day making adjustments to a generic darning foot. I am just starting to practice a little with FMQ. I made the adjustments Leah showed in the video because my fabric would not slide underneath the foot easily. It does seem to help. I haven't done very much FMQ yet, so I am still a newbie....but I wanted to mention that video. Hope this helps....I might need some suggestions from you after I start practicing more. Just waiting for my extension table to come in so I can get more serious about practicing!
