But, in the Brother's defense I use my quilter's foot which is made to give the 1/4" seam from both the left and right side, and it is very accurate on both sides. I'm sort of waiting to get done with the project to take the Bernina in, but the smart thing to do would be to take it in while I'm still busy.

I'm always amazed at people who can switch machines, using one in class and one at home. It's one of my strong sewing superstitions to do all the work on one project on machine.
I share the same superstition, especially when I’m working on an intermediate pattern or one that is a bit of a challenge to piece.
