I do not buy generic feet for my Bernina.
The 37 foot came with my machine and I bought the 57 foot which I love and use more than the 37. I'd go with the 57 it's worth the price. Has any one bought the "stitch-in-the-ditch" foot and if so how do you like it? |
I have #37 and the next time I am at a Bernina store I am going to purchase #57. I live more than an hour in any direction from a Bernina store and don't go to those towns very often.

I have both feet for my Bernina 430. I bought the #57 when I was still fairly new to quilting because I needed the guide for accuracy. Now, however, I find that I can't always see whether the fabric has slid under the guide and don't quite trust it the way I did at first. I bought the #37 recently (can't recall the price, but they're all expensive) and use it more than the #57 now.

I use the 37. I don't think I want to deal with the bar on the 57 (though I think one came with my machine).
Cheers, K |

This may have changed by now, but it is definitely worth checking on.

Cheers, K (And oh how I love Corgis!! How adorable. We have a lovely Havanese princess who entertains us every day.) |
My Bernina motor froze on me. The cost of replacing it was WAY too high. I just found a #37 in my stuff during the move. It's your if you pay shipping. (I did have a 57, found it annoying.)

The 57 foot.
I had the #37 before they came out with the # 57 with a guide. I would defiently go for the 57. You. won't be sorry. |
With QM offering the #37 foot to the OP for the cost of shipping alone, it'd be pretty much a no brainer in my book. I'd grab that deal in an instant! :lol:
