When I discovered that the Splurgess had a straight stitch plate I literally Gasped in Joy!!! as it was something Ive really really wanted and it makes straight stitching so much easier if you are a puller of fabric.

@Bill listen closely as I shall say this only once .... Ditch the feet you had before they Will Not fit!
Sell them, Give them away or Donate them to your local charity ... Get them OUT of the house!

You do not need them, They will not fit ...
You have bought the most marvellous machine brand new in perfect working order with all the accessories you could possibly need ... You have the Accufeed quilting set for Gawds sake ... Even I havent used those and Ive been sewing a lot longer than you.

So get those random feet Out and Away so theres no temptation to try them and screw up your dream machine!

Erm..... oops.  :S
Tried already. None of them fit.

Why didn't you warn me? @Iminei!
I look to you and the other TSP-ers for guidance on this wonder of sewing finesse and you didn't warn me? What's wrong with you? You might as well tell me to stick my fingers in the sockets and flick the switch!
My gawd! It's like you don't even care!

@Bill

Have you read your sewing machine manual from cover to cover yet?

If not, why not??? You’ll save yourself a lot of heartache and problems if you study the manual first. There’s always lots of little things you’ll learn that way that NOBODY ever teaches you. So there!!  :laughing:

@Bill


Well I have to say if I am having a miserable day reading your posts always make me smile, even if they also make me want to cry or shout at you.
