I broke my Bernina by being too lazy to put on my walking foot. Cost to fix? Hundreds. Have I fixed it yet? Nope! Don't have extra hundreds. Sewing on a marvelous Singer 301 that a friend gave me.

I posted a few weeks ago asking about the walking foot that came with my new Janome that my mom bought me. I had never used one and was a bit confused. After some help from the generously kind folks on this board I am now addicted to using that foot. For me it has made a world of difference with alignment and precision. I am fairly new to quilting so everything fascinates me still but I rank the walking foot pretty high up the wow scale.

I use my walking foot all the time - when ever I have two pieces of fabric that I am stitching together. The walking foot keeps the two pieces lined up perfectly. And the newer walking feet from Bernina come with a "blade" in the center that makes "stitch-in-the-ditch" a breeze. Definitely one of those "I can't do without it" tools.
