I bought a (generic) 2" binding foot for it - or whoa-ez-me - what an invention this is! I used it to bind some quicky fleece blankets for Christmas presents along with the walking foot and you would have thought I'd been doing it forever, they came out so neat and even.
are you using double fold binding?
do you stitch the binding down first and then use the special binding foot to help fold the binding to the back?
how do you do mitered corners with the binding and the special binding foot?
so basically, i would like to know exactly how you're doing this and if you could post a link or pic of the special binding foot that you use that would be wonderful.
or if you live nearby, put on a pot of coffee and i'll be over with some cake/cookies and a few quilts to bind off :-D
