Yeah, it's called a walking foot, and essentially, what it does is lift and pull the fabric along instead of the fabric just sliding underneath it. Very, VERY handy with things like vinyl which just sticks to the machine, or very thick sections, like two layers of vinyl and heavy thick cotton pipping (been there, done that.)
Heh, yeah I think we all hit the fifth dimension on the way home Saturday. XD But glad you made it home safely.
