Binder attachment thingy...
#35
I have the Kwik Bind System and it does sew the front and back at the same time and miters the corners it takes a lot of practice which I haven't had time to do, set up takes a lot of time, and I did get that done. I did do a small peice and it came out good corners are nice to. But I can see where one would have to practice. It will fit any machine as it comes with all kinds of adapters for slant,high,low shanks. I hope to have time this spring to work with mine some more. It will even fit on my 15-91 singer. Which is the machine I want to use it on most.

My local Janome store has one for Janome machines. It too is under $150. It was $126 the first time I saw it. That's how much things are going up. My Fiskars strip cutter was $23 when I bought it, now it is $50. Sieze opportunity when you are financially able because they will go up in price.

I have a binding foot for my pfaff that I got from ebay, for my pfaff. It was less than $25, and it sounds like the one you saw but for home machines. Let me know if you need a pic and I'll see if I can post one.

I saved up for the ridiculously expensive Bernina attachment and went back to the dealer a couple of times for hands-on instruction but I have never been able to get it to work once I get home. The strips that feed into it have to be cut absolutely perfectly and it can't handle the bulk of a sandwiched quilt. I believe there is a very steep learning curve with it and keep vowing to sit down and practice with it until I get it to work but it's been a complete disappointment and a total waste of $$$ for me. I can't even begin to imagine how to make mitered corners with it.

Check on www.Amazon.com first as I have seen binding feet there or www.clotilde.com. They are called bias tape binding foot. Not sure if this is the thingy you are talking about.
