My new epic came with a walking foot. It was recommended to try it when sewing on binding. It does work better as everything stays right in line. I have walking feet for two other machines but rarely use them. If it works so beautifully on this gem....then I may try the other ones with their feet. Of course that means I would be sewing on another machine.....don't think I will sew on anything but epic for the rest of my time!!,
