I wouldn't buy a SITD foot. Quilting cat suggested a zipper foot and I think that would be a better option. Just MHO. |
I have one for my Bernina and really get a lot of use from it. Works well.

I am very disappointed in my SITD foot. My Janome does not have a built in walker, so using the SITD foot on a quilt top leaves me without a walking foot to guide all the layers evenly. I think I have used it on one project, and never got it out again. I can do better stitching in the ditch with my walking foot and my eyeballs.

I don't have a stitch in the ditch foot for my Bernina 440QE-is one made for this machine? I use my walking foot and have had success with it.

I have a SITD foot, but I usually only use it for two things - butting together batting pieces from scraps to make larger pieces, and using it to do the blind stitching when I finish bindings by machine. For actual SITD work, I use my walking foot.

I have a Pfaff 7570 and a stitch in the ditch foot. I has a bar that will stay in the ditch and the needle stitches right behind it. I hava bernina 930 and it has a blind hem foot you can adjust to do the same thing. I use them both. I like anything that will help me do the best job.

Boy, am I behind the times. I'd never heard of a SID foot until now. Does someone have a picture of one that I can see?
|
I just use my walking foot. What's the difference?

I have one & use it all the time for table runners quilts, it is a very hand foot to have if you do a lot of sewing of these items.
