I have a Pfaff 7550 (about 15 years old) just upgraded to a Pfaff 2.0. I have all the feet but just can't get used to the SID foot, just my eyesight. So I have been using an Open Toed Applique Foot, (for years) I can see exactly where that stitich is going. Of course it does help if you have the built in IDT.
If you want to have a practice you can try increasing your stitch length, sometimes this helps if you don't have a walking foot.
