I bought a Euro Sewing machine from HSN two years ago. I want to know if anyone has a Euro that they use to quilt with. I want to know if I should buy a walking foot for this machine or pay that high amount for the Bernia walking foot which is about $150. I could not locate it any cheaper.

Any way I am trying to quilt with what I have before I move on further to a long arm.

The Bernina walking foot will fit only Bernina machines. Bernina has a different way of fitting the foot to the machine.

I said that wrong. I mean should I buy a walking foot for the Bernia which is expensive or should I purchase a walking foot for the Euro. I want to know if anyone has used the Euro to quilt with and have they used a walking foot on the Euro? Sorry for the confusion.

I bought that machine(Euro) from my DSIL before she moved out of state. She had never even used it and I needed a machine to do button holes(my other machines are 50+ yrs. old with just front & backward stitching). I have only tried SITD with it and didn't have any problems. I usually just do hand quilting. I do like the machine to make the rugs everyone is posting pics on. I have the generic walking for(low shank) and I don't think I paid over $25-30 for it, but used a coupon at Hankcock's on it or got it on sale @40% off.
