I finally tried an open toe foot so I could actually see where the needle was going and that was perfect for me. I guess I need to see where that needle is going and be able to make minute adjustments with my finger tips. I'm happy with the results......but I'm a bit of an odd ball. I think the real trick is to keep doing it until you have the muscle memory.
I use a walking foot with my Bernina 440 and love it. I also have an evenfeed foot with my Janome 6600 with a blade for stitch in the ditch and it works wonderful. I would not quilt without them-no bunching on the back and even stitches.
