This foot is so fun to use!
I would get a yard of fabric, cut it to a width you like, and ruffle the whole thing on the first setting. Measure and write down the resultant length. Then repeat the process each time using a different setting. Now you know what the yield is for a yard of fabric on each of the settings. Store the paper with the length info with the foot and/or label each ruffled strip & save it for future reference!

You can also use the foot to do a ruched sashing or inner border. Just ruffle both sides of your strip. Adds great texture.

I love my Bernina ruffler foot! It is easy to use and works well. I had a ruffler foot on a previous machine so I knew how to use one when I got the foot for my Bernina. I'm so glad you posted this. I used to make my granddaughter fancy night gowns with a ruffle. Since you mentioned a ruffler, I realized that fancy night gowns would be good ChristmS gifts for my granddaughter and her 5 foster sisters. I had been trying to come up with ideas of gifts I could make for the girls.
