    What is the best sewing foot to use when you are doing stitch in the ditch?

    I have a Pfaff with a SID foot that has a little metal guide in the middle of the foot to follow in the ditch. I do not if it is the best I still get out of the ditch sometimes.

    Bernina has a walking foot sole with a Stitch in the Ditch guide - when I'm using my DSM, that's my favourite.

    I have the same foot for my Pfaff {The stitch in the ditch foot} and although not perfect, it is so much better than a regular foot. Love mine...

    Walking foot on the Elna and the SITD foot on the 301. The 301 and the SITD foot does the better job.
