    Thanks to everyone who wants to try this. please let me know how you make out.

    My foot was NOT included in my accessories when I purchased the machine, it was a separate purchase.

    Mine was a separate purchase also Deb, it didn't come with my Memory Craft 9000. Thankfully, Janome feet aren't that expensive, I think I paid less than $15 for it.

    I looked at the Janome G foot, and it is not the same as my SID foot. Yes, it does have the little metal 'tongue' but the SID has the metal 'tongue' guide much longer. I forget what the G foot is for, but in my book it isn't called SID.

    The one I posted a picture of before is actually called a Blind Hem foot.

    I searched Janome.com for "stitch in the ditch foot" and "G foot". It looks similar to the G foot, but doesn't have one side longer than the other. Hmm, I wonder if I've been using the wrong foot for STID and maybe that's why I don't like it? :?: :shock:

    I just purchased the stitch in the ditch foot this past week and it is different the the G foot. Paid 24.98 - don't know if that is the going price at other dealers or not.

    I did not know you could buy a foot for SID. I will have to go look tomorrow.

    Hi,
    I've used this technique for flying geese also. But I add 1 step to it. When placing the square on the rectangle, I sew a second seam. Then when I trim off the unused corners, my seam is already sewn, and I have a half square triangle that I can use for something else. I don't think it adds more than a few seconds to the process of making the goose block.

    That looks like the "G" foot that came with my Brother CS-6000i, which the manual for the machine calls an overcasting foot. (I'm a newbie at both quilting and general sewing.)
