The Bernina ruler foot #72 is $80.49, and is a very nice foot. The Westalee ruler foot will work fine on your Bernina (that's what I use), and is $55 (comes with the arc ruler), but you have to buy the adapter shank #77 that is about $14. Bernina just had a 25% off sale. If you sign up for the email, you can catch the sale next time it comes around.
Westalee's starter set is $75 and comes with 6 templates. I've got a set for my Bernina 230 and one for my HQ Avante. I've sure had a lot of fun with ruler work. You can lay a foundation with the rulers, then add FMQ.
