I don't know who you are who posted anonymously to my free motion practice post, but THANK YOU!!! I never even THOUGHT of doing this!!! I have been to Leah Day's site before but had never seen this ---> click here to see super awesome video and tutorial. Leah shows how she turns a less than awesome darning foot...into an awesome one.
I just saved ten bucks, and this stay at home Mom is pretty happy about it! :)
Here is the darning foot for my Brother SQ9050 as it came with my machine...
Leah used jeweler's nippers? Was that what they were called? I used a rusty pair of pruning shears that somehow made their way into my laundry room cupboard. I don't know what that's about. Was I pruning roses in there? Oh and a nail file. (No shortage on those. When I'm not sewing I'm painting my nails...)
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! BASK IN THE AWESOMENESS!!!
Alright well I guess it's not that big of a deal. But I saved ten bucks and a week of delivery time so I'm happy. Thank you whoever posted that!!!
Now I must seriously get off of the computer and get something done around here.

Oh YEA ! So glad I could help :) I'm really new at quilting and my mother says "you'd be good at free motion" and she went through a bunch of websites to show me. Then she started setting me up, and the free motion sewing foot modification on my brother, she said, was a must.
I happened on your site while looking for mug rugs. I enjoy reading your blog so I'll be lurking around.
