binder foot assembly for walking foot or zigzag

[Jordan82 0]

I have a Bernina 217 (zigzag machine) is it possible to mount a binder foot on it?

I have the same question for the ZOJE ZJ-0628 (compound feed walking foot).

Aloha

It's possible to put a binder on just about anything. I did binding on a Singer 20U by just taping a straight binder to the throat plate. It worked ok for basic stuff. Binding on a walking foot is a little tough. Professionally made binding setups use custom feet and feed dogs so that binder is placed very close to the needles. The movement of the walking foot limits how close you can get.
