Did the walking foot not fit on the Bernina? Bernina's have several different shank attachments, so not all Bernina feet fit on all Bernina machines. If you want to purchase a generic walking foot, you need to purchase a Bernina shank adapter. This is a little piece that fits the Bernina on one end, and a low shank foot on the other. However, a generic walking foot will probably never work as well as a walking foot made specifically for the model of Bernina you have. Unfortunately, Bernina feet are really pricey -- especially the walking feet.

There's a listing of Bernina walking foot part #'s (genuine, because that's all I recommend) on the yahoo group for vintage Berninas. It's in the files section and it specifically states which part number goes to which model. There are a lot of Bernina walking feet and only a few fit the 830 and 930, 4 mm feed dogs. Who told you the walking foot would fit your machine??
