Page 24 of your 830 Bernina Guide manual shows the Blind hem stitch... You can use this stitch but with a different foot (maybe zig zag foot?) you'll have to PLAY with width and length to get the LOOK you want. When you get the look you want - WRITE DOWN THE stitch width, length, needle position and foot used. That sounds like a no brainer but how many times have I NOT done that ???? One of the BEST deco stitches this machine does (IMHO) is the # 2 (I call it serpentine stitch) It is the BEST for stitching down bindings on the FRONT... Really FAST and cute. My 830 is the envy of my quilting friends for that binding stitch... they come over to "borrow" my machine... I LOVE MY 830Record...... NOT to be confused with the computerized 830... A dealer said they named the NEW one the same as the old to get people to realize that the NEW is just as good as the OLD.... Fine and Dandy... It is still confusing as ****.....
