My machine insists that I use a walking foot!:)
|
I use my regular 1/4" foot. I have tried using the walking foot but didn't see how it made any difference other than the hassle of putting it on.
|
I've always found that putting binding on with the walking foot, makes the sewing easier because you are sewing on 2 layers of fabric as well as batting and the binding, lots of layers. I think the walking foot gives better results.

I use my walking foot, keeps it all feeding evenly and without
shifting |
I sew binding to the back with walking foot. I turn to the front and sew on with a regular foot. I am mking quilts to donate. I think machine sewing is better for donated quilts, don't know how much use they will get.
For my own quilts I hand sew to the back. |

I absolutely use a walking foot. I find it makes a huge difference when sewing through so many layers.

With my Bernina I use the 1/4" foot. I tried the walking foot but had trouble keeping a straight stitching line. Maybe I should try again when I'm not in a hurry. ;)

always use my walking foot to sew binding onto the front, hand stitch to the back

I use a walking foot and it has saved me from getting puckers in the front of the quilt. I had been having trouble with these little puckers and now I rarely ever have a pucker. The three layers sew together so much better.

I use my walking foot EVERY time I sew my binding on
