I purchased an AcuFeed stitch in the ditch foot for my Elna for $29.99, and it's actually listed as being for the Janome. I was told it fits both brands. Works great! I got it from allbrands.com. I see their website now lists it as fitting Elna as well. I also purchased from them AcuFeed feet for quarter inch (which comes with a marked needle plate), and the Open Toe Satin Stitch. They also have an AcuFeed ruffler (which I did not get).

Here's a link to the foot itself:

Another foot I really like and has made a big difference in my accuracy is the quarter-inch foot. It has a metal side thingy that the fabric butts up against. I had marked the 1/4inch with tape and post-its but for some reason this works great. I think it was $19.99 for my Viking but I'd pay double that now that I can see how much more accurate my seams are.

I have one for my Pfaff, but haven't made the plunge yet for my Bernina.

Saw it, love it, gotta get it! I have a Janome dealer just 20 minutes from my house! Next trip out is there!

suzic46 -- I got it at my local Janome dealer! He's in the same shop as the quil shop. That's dangerous, you know. Can't tell you how many times I've gone in to get fabric and have drooled over the expensive machines!! :mrgreen:

I have one for my Viking. But I don't use it very often any more. I don't do a lot of SID quilting with my DSM, now that I have the mid-arm setup.

The ditch foot has a piece of metal down the middle that keeps it in the ditch..
I love it for sewing the back binding on by sewing in the ditch on the front of the quilt. It keeps me from wandering away from the ditch.

Yep, got one for my Pfaff. It sure helps staying in the Ditch.
