Thanks for the information. Oh, I think you're right - I'll keep the one I have and look for the other one next time I am near the store.

illinois, that sounds like great idea. I'll check my Janome dealer. Some Janome attachments fit my Elna. I know the walking foot is one that does because I have it.

I have a Pfaff and I love the stitch in the ditch foot. It works great with the built in walking foot.

My SITD foot attaches to my walking foot and I find it works just great. Couldn't seem to get the hang of doing the SITD thing before this. Was always leaving the ditch and thus leaving a wavy trail.

I also have a Pfaff and I love my stitch in the ditch as well as my 1/4 inch foot. I use both of them a lot.

I have had better luck with the walking foot. Seems like I had a really hard time staying in the ditch with the SITD foot. Just my opinion, for what it is worth.

I just purchased one but haven't used it yet. A class I took at Road 2 Ca. suggested one so I thought I would give it a try. I guess I well see.
Thanks for the pro's and con's.

I have a Pfaff one. It is easy to use - there is a sort of non - cutting blade that runs along the furrow of the seam and the stitch goes directly in behind. It is as accurate as I am with the guiding of the fabric.

If you have an overlock foot, see if that works.
My Elnas overlock foot works for me. Stays right in the ditch

I have one with my Bernina Aurora 450, it seems to work very well.
