The 15000 is too nice a machine to cobble something together when there's a nice foot available. Especially as you wouldn't want to hit the ruler with your needle and mess up the timing.<br /><br />A regular straight stitch will be the stitch to use for the convertible fmq foot set. I'm not sure which one, just so that the needle falls in the center of the ruler foot. The height is adjusted on the foot itself.

I wasn't sure about ordering the Convertible Janome set, plus the ruler foot set for my 15000. I wondered how much I would actually use it - so I experimented a bit.<br /><br />I thought the main thing you want is a foot that doesn't hop but that can be used on the Quilting Straight Stitch 2 setting via the Applications menu of the 15000 - since this is set up to use the non-hopping feet supplied with the machine (that are not particularly good for ruler work). I did think I might be able to use the big circular marked one they specify for zig-zag work - but the because the bottom is curved the ruler kept slipping out of place.<br /><br />However what I did find was that I could use the Embroidery foot - P - for stitching around curves (tested with some jar lids) and the button foot (which does not have a pivot point) for straight line stitching. The fact that you can adjust the height of the foot on the FMQ Straight Stitch 2 means that you can adjust it to suit whatever guide you are using.<br /><br />Anyway after some practising I enjoyed it and decided I buy the two Janome accessories I need to use the proper ruler foot - but I think I may practise a bit more with the button foot for straight line cross hatching - will have to see. :0)Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09138443239884765878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445986501162780215.post-26442211848276631672015-05-04T17:58:31.125-04:002015-05-04T17:58:31.125-04:00Denise, I have the SS stipple foot on a Juki TL-20...Denise, I have the SS stipple foot on a Juki TL-2010 also, but find that sometimes it hangs up on the bulkier seam allowance spots.

I couldn't be happier with this foot. It's perfectly round, 1/2" diameter, with 1/4" raised sides that ride along the edge of longarm rulers. Finishing Touches also sells ruler feet that work with a number of other makes/models of sewing machines (though not Bernina). Highly recommend.<br />http://www.finishingtouchesquiltingstudio.com/apps/webstore/products/category/768624Vallihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15432485551779908415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445986501162780215.post-88807036105946731782014-09-06T10:00:26.431-04:002014-09-06T10:00:26.431-04:00The toe is one half inch in diameter so that the n...The toe is one half inch in diameter so that the needle is one quarter inch from the edge in any direction. it is approximately one quarter inch thick to rest against the rulers.

Do you find you need to raise it up a bit, so the ruler doesn't slip over it too easily?

Now, Janome and Elna are the same machine for all intents and purposes,so I dont that that is a fair proof of concept. It might be interesting to see if other people have tried some of these feet on other machines though. :)Susan at TheBoredZombie.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03087416472619298547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445986501162780215.post-72309553085272172662013-10-01T08:06:24.728-04:002013-10-01T08:06:24.728-04:00Wonderful blog I just discovered with lot of inter...Wonderful blog I just discovered with lot of intersting tips.

Although I did find a "too good, not to share" tip at: http://www.futuregirl.com/craft_blog/2008/7/sewing-vinyl.aspx. <br /><br />Alice states, "If you've ever tried to sew vinyl or plastic, you've discovered that the metal presser foot on your sewing machine STICKS to it like nobody's business. The solution is simple: just put a piece of tape over the bottom of the presser foot."

I have a Bernina (low shank) as I mentioned in a previous comment. I have a snap-on adaptor to go from low shank to high shank. I know we can adapt low shank to high shank, but I can't get my head around going from a high shank to a low shank. I found an very informative sewing machine parts website some months ago. I'll try to find web address. Maybe I pinned it. I'll check my Pinterest ......See you in three hours!<br />Good job Amy. althea9998@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01914678188695346314noreply@blogger.com
