    Default Presser foot question- Bernina 350 PE...#5N same as #5??

    Hi ladies (and maybe some gents?) I'm looking to add some presser feet to my collection but I'm totally confused. My machine is the Bernina 350PE, and I wanted to get an overlock foot #2 and a blind stitch foot #5. Now there are all of these letters after everything and I can't find just a regular 2 or 5. Do this exist? Can I still use the ones with the letters after? It's all unclear, even on the website. Thoughts welcome!!!

    I don't know, but I went to the following website that allows you to search on your specific machine model and then shows you all the parts that will fit it. I could not find a blind stitch foot, but did find the overlock foot #2N here, and they guarantee it will fit the machine. Here are all the parts I found for the 350PE:

    Edit: How wide are your decorative stitches? This website has a photo of the blindstitch foot and says it will fit Bernina machines of either 5.5mm or 9mm width.

    Edit: I found this website that says the 350PE takes "new style" feet, in case that helps:

    Edit: Found the blindstitch foot here:

    and it looks like Amazon has them too.

    Final edit: I think you are okay as long as the foot has a red number. Not sure the ones made in Taiwan are original Bernina feet, though.

    To the best of my knowledge the max stitch width of your machine is 5.5 mm so you need foot 2 and 5, no letters after the number. They should be available from any Bernina dealer. Since my dealer is over two hours away, I call and tell them what I need and they’ll ship it to me.
