Hi Kathy. I have owned this foot for a while but never used it much. After watching your video I tried it doing some small curved stitching and LOVED it. Kudos for Bernina for providing the foot, but mostly THANK YOU for your tutorial on using it. ❤️
Such a skilled educator! You have inspired me many times! Thank you 🙏🏻
Best tips for this foot i ever saw, thank you so much ❤
That’s was brilliant to see what the roller foot can do go to order one now. Thank you 👍
A very nice and precisely filmed video!!!!! Now I can leave that presser foot all the time when doing free motion, and use the other presser feet in my other machines for embroidery or special decorations!!!!! Thanks a lot, you are a very good Teacher and Illustrator, the Lord be with you!!!!!
Hi Kathy! I bought this foot with my new machine this weekend because I saw it in Bernina’s foot of the month feature on Instagram ... but I really enjoyed seeing your additional project ideas and your tips! What a great idea on that braided trim! And I’ve recently had some ideas on using piping on my projects, so this is fabulous, too! I love your videos - can’t wait to watch more! Thank you for sharing!!!
I'm so glad you found the videos helpful. You will really enjoy the presser foot. Kathy
Thank you for these tips! I’ve had the roller foot for years but now am anxious to try your methods, especially for appliqué. Cheers!
Thanks sew much for this video, and it's simply the best as you show actual applications for using this foot
Can't wait to watch all of your videos!!
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. I hope you enjoy the rest of the videos and I hope to add more soon. Kathy
You are w wonderful teacher! Thank you for doing this video as I have been trying to figure out the most precise way to attach bulky cording to some pillows I am making! Love your instructiona videos! You voice is so soothing and optimistic that it makes me believe I can do it it…whatever you are teaching! Blessings!
HI Great video! Loved all the tips. A friend recently gave me this roller foot. She only used it a couples times so I was thrilled. I seem to have some tension issues with it, though. I tested everything on leather with a leather needle and my walking foot and it was perfect. But when I used this foot the bottom stitch was coming up through the top and the top stitch wasn't tight. Do you know what could be wrong/ how I could fix it? Can the foot be serviced by a Bernina dealer? (I don't know why it would need to since basically brand new, but I suppose you never know?) Need your expert advice. Thanks so much!
Thank you for all these videos. I am learning so much.
You are so welcome. Thank you for supporting us.
Wht is the cost of the machine
❤very interessting!👍😃
Thank you!
Thank you for this demonstration! I really enjoyed this!
You are so welcome Colleen. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment.
Thank you so much for this video, i will use the foot for bra sewing especially the hook & eye tabs & wire channeling.
Thanks so much for watching. One of my favorite presser feet for sewing on hooks and eyes is foot #18 the button sew on foot. You might want to give that a try.
@@ginasberninasewingcenter2375 i think #18 will work on individual hooks & eyes, with bras I use the pre made bra band closures, attaching to a back band is tricky to replicate industrial standards, i think I should be able to sew a tiny zigzag on the edge.
@@kimbrachet5695 oh you are right. I hope this foot works for you. Be sure to let us know.
Thank you, I have this presser foot. I need to start using it!!
I love that I’m going to try that
I enjoyed watching this video and was thrilled to hope that I could free motion quilt with the benefit of having the feed dogs up to help with more even stitches. Well, I ordered one and it arrived yesterday. I know that it’s meant for Bernina machines, but hoped that I might make it work on my Janome 6300. No such luck. For starters, the screw that holds it has a large head that blocked the wheel. I switched to a smaller head screw and got it on, but then, there is no way to adjust the foot so that the wheel is very close to the needle. Steering wasn’t all that easy. I couldn’t do the tight turns like the video showed. I will see if any of my quilting friends will be able to get this foot to work correctly. At least it wasn’t very expensive, so I’m not out much for this experiment.
I am so sorry as I did not realize that you were planning to use it on a Janome. Is it possible that Janome might have something similar?
Also, since you were able to get the foot on you stated you could not move the foot closer to the needle. Is it possible to move the needle positions on your machine rather than trying to move the presser foot.
Hello. When you first set up the position of the needle you said you moved it as far over to the left as possible. When you started using some of those other stitches (ie those that move left to right) did you return the needle position to centre? or did you keep it as far over to the left as possible?
When so did the appliqué, I used the blanket stitch and again moved the needle toward the wheel and to the left. The needle should be close to the wheel as the wheel provides the only support the needle has. Hope that answers your question and thank you for watching.
I see that the foot looks like "old style" with the two prongs but your machine is a newer machine. So does that mean I could buy the old style for my 790? TIA
I have ordered my rollers foot for stitching in the ditch and outline quilting.
That’s wonderful. I hope you get it soon and enjoy it.
hey there, Deleana! Would you mind sharing what you thought of using it as a stitch-in-the-ditch foot option?? I’m brand new to Bernina, and trying to gather all the tips and tricks I can possibly absorb! :-)
@@s.s.2875 Unfortunately, the foot didn’t fit my machine. I have been unable to find one which does.
@@deleanabadger4037 oh, shoot, that’s a bummer! I hope you can find the one that fits. I have the Big Bernina Book of Feet, if I can look something up for you, I will. I’ve only begun to page through that .... !
Where can I get one to buy?
Question. Does foot 55 work on the older.model bernina 1130? I thought it is a low.shank.machine
Thank you. Jacquie
When you speak with your Bernina dealer in your area, be sure to let them know which model of machine you want the presser foot for. The presser foot can be purchased specifically to fit your model. Hope that helps.
Bernina has to different styles of cone shank for the presser feet, one is called the "Old Style" with no slit in the back of the mouth, and is for models before the advent of the 1990s, and then you have the 'New Style" with a slit in the back of the mouth, for all the models since then, and they are NOT COMPATIBLE. Just check the presser foot from the top and you will see that slit I describe. I tried to use an old style presser feet on my 2009 Bernina B830, and it was able to attach but did not work properly because the needle was hitting the solid part of the foot. This # 55 is for newer machines. The solution I can give you is to buy the Bernina foot adapter # 75/77 for old style machines together with the baby lock Leather Quilting Roller Foot model BLSO-LRF. Bernina has two different types of presser feet as I said before, so you need to get any of those Bernina adapters # 75 (=standard adapter shank) or # 77(=Short Shank Adapter) for old style machines and see which of the two adapters combine properly with your model and the Baby Lock foot. For more info go to shop.berninausa.com. Hope this helps you.
Can you attach a zipper with this foot?
Will this foot work with the B77 sewing machine?
Sorry to tell you but no, it will not work with any of the Bernina B77 or B79, or the Bernette type from Bernina, they use the snap-on system, not the cone system from the Regular Bernina machines. There is a similar foot from Baby Lock called the Leather Quilting Roller Foot model BLSO-LRF. You can try that for your Bernette. You need to remove the presser foot and the ankle from the machine, and then install this presser foot directly to the shank and tighten the screw. I am using it in my Bernina B830 with the Bernina presser foot adapter # 75. The Bernina foot is very expensive, about 110.00 USD, and difficult to get only by ordering. I paid 29.00 for the Babylock foot and 10.00 for the Bernina adapter. For more info about Bernina presser feet and prices go to shop.berninausa.com. Hope this helps you.
Does this foot work on a brother dream machine
No Kay. I’m sorry but it is made to fit Bernina machines.
The presser foot for the Brother will be the Baby Lock Leather Quilting Roller Foot model # BLSO-LRF. Baby Lock and Brother are made by the same people, so it will match your machine. Hope this helps you,
Thank you ; would to see the back of fabric to look at the work. I am a back of the quilt type person.
Thank you for the suggestion, I'll try to remember to do that. Thank you for watching.
How much is the no 55.# bernina foot
