Free Motion Foot Set Up

I have had a few set backs.  I had a Sinus infection that would not go away nor keep me enjoying life.   A few hospital visits and I pray no more ER or hospital.   Today, I am trying to get things done.  I thank God I am perking up.

So what have you been doing in your sewing room.  I have been getting back to free motion quilting.  I have a Bernina Virtuosa 150 and love this machine.  Yes, it is not the latest greatest but I love it.  I have followed a blog called http://www.freemotionquiltingadventures.com/.



I loved the Janome Machine foot system with convertable free motion foot.  I bought a Janome foot
for Low Shank Machine.

I bought a special  Bernina adapter to hopefully use this foot.  It was a experiment, I was dreaming it would work.  Well, I bought the wrong Bernina Adapter, for my machine for first time.   I needed the longer one  they call 75 standard, part number  008 367 72 00, for models 130, 140, 150, 160, 170 and 180.
I bought another adaptor 75, to see if I could use the foot without filing.  The same, needed to file for my machine.


The Adapter needed some filing.  Yes, it needed a little fine tuning.  The edge needed to be filed so the foot with fit.  It was just a bit of filing, you can see above.

  1. Thanks for posting this and letting me know about it. I've been wondering about the filing as some others haven't needed to do it. Congrats on some fine "out-of-the-box" problem solving!
