I went to my local sewing machine shop and was delighted to see they
had the new bobbin case for FM quilting for my Janome 6600. I bought
the only one. I tried it out tonight on a practice sandwich and I must
say I think it's pretty good. I did a lot of things I normally
wouldn't do while quilting, just to see how it would perform, and I
saw a real improvement. Virtually no "eyelashes" on the back when I
revved up the motor and skidded around corners and did some slingshot
angles.
I paid $28 for it and I'm really happy with the purchase. It's
definitely worth the price.

Thanks for the recommendation , Sunny. I bought one a couple of weeks
ago; but haven't had the chance to try it out yet. It will be put in as
soon as I get back from my short break. I have a lap quilt all ready
for quilting!

How is it different from the regular bobbin case?

The tension is set up specially for free motion quilting, rather than
for general sewing.
I have great hopes. I just hope they are fulfilled!!

So does this mean it doesn't work as well for general sewing? If so,
how easy is it to tell the two bobbin cases apart? I have a terrible
time keeping track of which needle I'm using (current method = tape the
needle case on top of my machine) and I'd hate to have problems
remembering the bobbin case.
