Janome even feed rotary foot set for bindings?
Does anyone use this foot for bindings? I heard from one lady that it works wonders for her. Binding top and bottom at once. Maybe she is doing something smaller than quilts? (I have never even owned a conventional walking foot)
http://www.amazon.com/Janome-Rotary-.../dp/B002EZW6RO It seems like such a nifty foot, but $70 is a lot. Any users out there? And how do you do corners? |
Hmmm, guess I'll stick with sewing the usual way. No spare cash here.

I don't have any of those foot, so would not be able to tell. You. My Janome came with more feet than I know what to do with I really should have taken a class. Oh well next time..

I bought a binding foot for my Janome. I haven't played with it enough to get it right yet!!! http://www.sewingmachinesplus.com/20...KU=j-200313005

a bit too pricey for me, too. i see that it ships from kens sewing center-very reputable.
i bought the individual binding folders many years ago. they look like the 3 size parts on the right. they were a tad difficult to use. i don't use them anymore. |
the more expensive one is a set.
if you bought separate feet for each of the sizes and functions i expect they'd add up to more than $70. it looks like it might be a practical choice for somebody who does garment sewing, too. otherwise, one of the two "just binding" feet makes more sense. i wonder two things: (1) how hard is it to use them on a quilt sandwich; and (2) how would you go around a corner? |

don't waste your money. I could have bound 3 queen quilts with the time I spent struggling to get that foot to work. The only way to get it to work on corners would be if the corners are rounded.
