    Can"t quilt without it. I never heard of any one having a problem with one. And I can't imagine even trying to quilt without one.

    I have one for my Janome and love it - really makes putting borders and binding on much easier and smoother. Wouldn't do with it!

    I use mine all the time, even when piecing the quilt top. It seems to help keep the fabric even. Linda

    Get it from amazon. I went to two different lqs and they wanted 50.00 and up. On amazon I only paid 19.99 and with shipping it was under 25.00. I used it and it was awesome.

    Before you buy, go check out ebay and google for better prices. I was at JoAnn Fabric last week and was going to buy one to go with my Viking machine. The sales lady told me it would be $109 plus tax. Well I wasn't too happy about paying that much for a foot, so I came home and got it online for 24.95, no tax. I received it in the mail today and have already been sewing away on it.

    I have used my friend's walking foot once and loved it. I have an "old" 1966 Bernina 730 and the walking foot from the Bernina dealer is $175. Someone suggested I try ebay and it was still $75. Does anyone know of a source or have a walking foot for the 730? I really find these threads educational. You ladies are the best!

    I have a Viking 980 and my walking foot is a gift from Heaven. All the feet to my machine that I use regularly I have purchased separately from the machine. They give you a box of feet and none are the ones you want to quilt with.Shirley Ann in Alger.
