no, the stabilizer will interfere with the tuck. practice and have fun.
The pintuck foot will give you a slightly different effect on different fabrics. A batiste, handkerchief linen, or any other lightweight fabric will give it a nice 'tuck', a heavier fabric will not pull up quite as much, but will still have a pin tuck effect. You do NOT want to use stabilizer because you want the fabric to bunch up in the groove. You can also cord the pintuck by placing a very fine crochet cotton on the bottom side of the fabric and have it caught in the bobbin thread. This helps to define the pintuck.
