I thought there was a 1/4" foot for that Bernina. If not, using the foot you prefer, move your needle position to the right to where it will create a 1/4 inch seam if you track your fabric along the edge of that foot. I know the presser foot is not as wide as the feed dogs on many of the computerized Bernies, but if you have a foot that will cover the feed dogs, and for which you can move the needle to the right enough to make that 1/4" seam at the edge of the presser foot, you can use the attached method to help keep a good straight 1/4" consistently. (Click on the picture to enlarge it.) P.S. Use tape to hold the Post-it Note pad in place if you wish.
