GMALKB Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 What is involved in upgrading to the interchangeable hopping feet............I think that would be a great advantage - especially the open toe option. Have any of you had your current machine upgraded with this option? Since I am getting "blissed", thought I might investigate this option while I am at it. Thanks for any input. I have a 2010 Millie.

GMALKB Posted December 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Guess I should have done a search before posting my question, as I found lots of information about this...........everyone seems to love, love, love having the different feet. So, one more thing to add to my upgrade wish list ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachside Quilter Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 The interchangeable feet are great, Linda! I use the low profile Applique and open toe feet a lot. You will love them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neher-in-law5 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 It makes great sense to have it done when another major overhaul is done on the machine. I hope to someday have it done to George. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wreckser Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 I also love the interchangeable feet! I did the change myself - the only difficult part was sawing the old foot into pieces so I could get it out of the machine. Would definitely recommend the change.

Primitive1 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 I have them too and use the open toe foot the most now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertwood Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 How do I know if I have an interchangeable hopping foot on my machine? I have a 2010 Millie. Do I have to take my head apart to find out? My older Millie had the one piece, tall feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 You will have two small screws about an inch up from the hopping foot, then you have an interchangeable hopping foot bar. http://shop.apqs.com/Peek-A-Boo-Foot_p_127.html If the hopping foot bar is one solid piece of metal from where it comes out of the head to the bottom of the foot, you do not have an interchangeable hopping foot machine. You can upgrade it though, which does require retiming your machine. Cagey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
