  1. Can you tell me what free motion quilting foot you are using? I have a BabyLock symphony. I have the quilting foot (what I call the hopper foot) as well as the darning foot but I really like the look of this one. I don’t like the up/down motion of the hopper foot and would like to try this one if it’s compatible for my machine.

  2. Rob Do you ever quilt on the silicon mat and how do you prevent this from happening. I have ruined 3 different mats attempting to fmq with a mat.
