I ended up buying a Pfaff for that reason. I love the built in walking-foot and my stitch-in-the-ditch foot. My friend with a lot of quilting experince was amazed the first time I showed her one of my stitch-in-the-ditch projects.

= o D

The Binding Thingy on the same website sounds really neat too!

I would think it might work on a Janome. That's the one I use the most. I have a Brother too that is newer and some of the feet I use on both. I'll have to go back and look at that closer.

That WOULD be perfect. Do they not make such a thing... a walking foot WITH a stitch n the ditch guide? That would help me so much.

If you use the walking foot alone, you don't have the ditch guide and if you use a stitch n the ditch foot, you fight with the fabric bunching up.

I have a Kenmore which is 13+ years old but I think it can use any low shank foot.

Anyone know of such a foot?

no bunching. no attachments or adapters needed. doesn't cost a fortune.

works great

they make them for all shanks, and snap-on

I've seen those. So you don't have the bunching problem that most people use a walking foot for, while using that ditch foot?

I guess what I wanted was a walking (even feed) foot/stitch in the ditch hybrid. That couldn't be impossible to make, right?

One of these days I'll get a foot like the one you pictured and see if that works out for me.

I guess quilt shops... any place that sell sewing supplies.

Try googling: stitch in the ditch foot
Should find some online retailers.

I use one to stitch on my back binding and you dont need a walking foot. It stays in the ditch and does not wander. I love it. Got mine at Joanns sewing machine section. It just snaps on.
