I have owned a Bernina machine since 1982. Upgraded to a 570QE 3 years ago. Promise - this guy is awesomely fabulous. Better than any other instructional video out there. So thankful I “accidentally” found him today! Excuse my trendy comment, but he’s a “game changer”!
I agree Johanne. This is the most comprehensive explanation of a presser foot I've ever heard. Bernina doesn't even explain their feet this thoroughly. THANK YOU YOU CODY.
Good video - another hint for the fabric not going 'down the hole' is to start with your needle in the down position and it jumps up to the top of your fabric. That changed everything in my piecing.
I can’t understand why anyone would give this fellow I thumbs down! Are you crazy? I am a new Bernina owner and a very novice sewist this has been extremely helpful much better than the Bernina videos nice and close and clear explanation with rationale behind everything. Thank you so much
Awe thank you for being so positive I love getting comments from my viewers it's what keeps me making more videos to help everyone. :) Thank you for watching...
I think, people are trollers and should be dismissed from our minds. We know what is a good instructional video and we follow. I just found you. I own a 440 Aurora, but none the less it applies to all sewing machines. Thank you Cody and Pete👏👏💕
Hi! This was a wonderful tutorial! I am a new Bernina 570QE owner and I appreciate your information- it was very simple to learn about this foot. Thank you!
You are wonderful as a teacher and a person, I thankyou and appreciate you so much for the care you give to your tutorials. Also, please do as video on Pete, I have o let seen him 1 x...
Thank You Cody, I generally do not leave Comments, but your video are the Best I have seen for Bernina learning base, I love your Way. Thanks You Again for sharing!
Thank you Cody and Pete! I’m looking into getting my mom the 475QE… I have the 570QE. I went to look at a few other brands today and realized what Bernina has as far as quality. One piece feet, all metal, good sturdy construction and feel! I guess I didn’t realize what I had. I’m so happy you do all these videos, I’m much more sure this will be a good decision, and we can share some feet as well, including my BSR! Such good info always and so reassuring! You are making up for all the gaps in my learning! Thank you and God Bless!🥰
The 475 is a wonderful machine I love it. Your mom will love it to I’m sure. Yes they are very sturdy machine and can sew anything I throw at it. I am glad my videos are helping you learn more about your machine 🥰
Omg! Thank you for the information! I have both feet and was only using the 37D with 9 mm plate had so much issues as you stated in the video! Tonight I switched over to the 97D and zero mm plate! Can’t believe the different! Thank you
Cody, you really have a great way of teaching . I was having some difficulties with some blocks I was stitching . I was researching which 1/4 inch foot would be best to use and came across this video . Wow , game changer . My blocks are perfect . I was using the 37D . I will be checking out all of your videos ! ❤
My name is Tonya and I work at Lola Pink Fabrics in Lafayette, and just wanted to thank you for these videos. They are extremely informative and now I feel like I can help my customers even better than before! 😊
Great explanation on the 97D, 9 mm plate, feed dogs and guide. I've had my 570QE for a year and a half, and can still use these basic tutorials. Going to look back through your video list to check those out. Thanks!
Absolutely fabulous. Going to buy the 97D and the single hole stitch plate. While it’ll be great for piecing, I’ll be able to adjust the guide when I’m sewing clothing, I can never sew a 5/8" seam, after quilting a 1/4"seam allowance so often, the 5/8" seems so huge! 🤣 problem solved, thank you.
Thank you, this was invaluable to me. I have been struggling with piecing on my brand new Bernina 770 and now know that it is because I am using the wrong stich plate! No more stuck fabric corners and birds nests for me!
Good information I have not used the 0 mm stitch plate and did not know it was for straight stitching and I do a LOT of Free motion quilting - thanks again for the great info!
This showed up in my recommended videos this morning. Thanks. I found a 97 foot buried in my machine drawer the other day. “Too much stuff”. I will start using this asap.
Wow!! Thank u so much for this video! I'm a new Bernina owner (and new sewer!) and this video was super informative!! I already switched my foot, plate and installed the guide!!
Thank you for this video! Question - I’m assuming you can’t do a 1/4” scant when using the straight stitch plate, correct? I’m new to the Bernina and don’t have a straight stitch plate yet. I’m in the middle of a quilt so I can’t change to a standard 1/4” now. I’m using my 97d with the attachable guide that came with it. I’m using the standards plate and I can move my needle 1 space to the right and it matches the stitch width I was doing on my Janome for scant. How do you do a scant with the straight stitch plate for so you just stick to a regular 1/4”? Thank you!
Thank you. I am trying to get better skills with my 770 this week and wanted to know best to get my quarter inch. I didn’t know about the stitch plate.
Thank you for the clear and easy to understand explanation of how to use the patchwork foot and the seam guide. I didn't have the seam guide with my new Bernina 475QE so I will be buying one now.
You mentioned using a #37 foot while applying binding - I thought binding should be applied with a walking foot. Any clarification? Thanks so much - love your videos!
That’s correct there really isn’t any need to use the 37 or 57 on the 770 because you don’t get the best feeding especially when you go over seams. For years all we had were the 37D and 57D they work but the 97D is incredible. They just need one like the 97D with an attached guide like the 57D. 😁
Thank you for this helpful video. Very clear and full of information to help me understand the differences between these feet and why. I have a question for you. When I am sewing a bag and am sewing a binging on over a zipper, I want to use a quarter-inch foot. When I use the 97d foot, I find it’s a little too wide to the left of the needle. It bumps up against the zipper. Could I use the 37d instead? Would I be losing too much control with loss of traction with my feed dogs? I don’t like using a zipper foot for this step, because it’s too hard to judge the 1/4 inch and the fabric feels squarely because there is so little contact with the feed dogs. Thanks for your help.
Hi Cody! Thank you so much for these videos. They have helped me so much in making a decision to purchase a B480, and have helped so much with questions I've had. One issue I am having is using the 97 foot with the guide and the 0mm plate, I still get some shifting of the fabric and it causes the seams to narrow at the end of the seam. I have tried lessening the presser foot pressure and that improves it some. Do you have any other suggestions? Thank you so much! You are awesome!
I have to move my needle 2 'clicks' to the right, otherwise my 1/4" seam is too big. The guide is great, but I don't understand why I still need to move needle over for the scant. Don't we always want the scant, at least when quilting? I am new to Bernina and don't know anything about garment sewing. Would you use the 1/4 foot without needle clicks to the right for garment sewing? Confused in Oregon. LOL Thank you for the video. Now I understand you get better traction with this foot. That makes sense.
Hi Cody, I have an Artista 730 and none of the 1/4" feet say they are adaptable. Can you clarify if the 97 will work on that machine? Thanks for all of your tips. You are the best in helping us use our machines.
Really informative video Cody. Thank you for this. Something I wonder about, I always hear that a 5mm machine is always your best bet for precise 1/4" piecing. But if you have a 9mm, and use the 97D with the built in dual feed, and the seam guide, would you get the same quality of piecing?
I’d love to know your thoughts on the new Bernette 08 for piecing. I have a 350pe and am debating whether to purchase a straight stitch plate or trade for a 475 or 570 to be my piecing and binding machine. I have a Q20 for free motion.
I have the B- 570 I bought the straight stitch plate 7 series ,is this the right single stitch plate, it says B-710,B- 750QE, & B- 780, this is the one they gave me to buy. I’m not sure if it’s 5m but is a single stitch. And when you change the plate on the 570qe is the feed dog pressed down before changing plate? Thank you if this works will improve my quilting,hopefully I can learn to obtain the scant 1/4” seem.
Hi Cody! Thank you for always explaining in great detail. I am Always learning from you. I have a question…as your upper thread comes down to the needle IT WRAPS AROUND THE NEEDLE. what is the advantage? I’ve never seen this on a BERNINA video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Hi! Very informative video! Thank you so much. I have a though… Because the fabric is drag mainly from the left side (that is wide), won't the fabric be moved forward unevenly (because less tracking on the right) and then, have a tendency to go on the diagonal? Which means you have to hold your fabric well to guide it, otherwise in won't go straight ?
Sorry for another post. I want to add to the post just below and say that I am using that very first stitch, the straight stitch. Should I change to one of the straight stitches in the quilt stitch menu? Does that eliminate need for the moving needle to the right for scant when quilting? OK thank you! I appreciate it.
Hi, I was using the 97d with side guide on my 770, but it seems the fabric get scewed and I dont get a regular 1/4" seam! I use stitch no 1, should I use something else. I have taken to doing my piecing on my 380 with a perfect seam using the 57 foot.
Love your videos but a question…. I use regularly my 97 foot but if I need a scant 1/4 do I need to move my needle one notch to the right to get the scant? Please help.
Yes so with the 97 foot you can move your needle to get that scant 1/4” but unfortunately you can’t move your needle with the 0mm “straight” stitch plate so you would have to use the optional 5.5 mm or the 9mm stitch plate. Hope this helps
On my Bernina 530 I can use the straight stitch plate with 1 click over. You should gently try it on your machine by hand cranking to ensure that you have enough clearance and no rubbing on the right.
My machine will not recognize my 97D foot. I have the B 790 that you sold me Cody. I’ve selected the foot and the correct plate. I can’t figure out what’s wrong. Please help!
Questions ... can I use the 97 foot on a 5mm Bernina? Can I use the seam guide on a 5mm machine that has the requisite holes for mounting it? I’d like to use my 97 foot with the seam guide on my Bernina 350 that I use for traveling. (I use the 97D on my new 570)
YES :) yes to all of that. If you have the regular 97 you can use it on any machine you want and the guide that comes with it is not a new attachment its been around for decades. :) So you can use it on any BERNINA machine with most feet. :)
If you didn't have the 0mm stitch plate on you can move the needle position one space in both directions. However with the 0mm stitch plate there is no movement allowed.
I can get 1 click on my 530 with the straight stitch plate for that machine. You can test yours by gently hand cranking down. I have plenty of clearance, your mileage may vary.
So there is no “C” version of the 97. The 97 is just designed for the 9mm stitch width machines which you 200 is. So all you will need is the regular 97. You couldn’t use the D version on your 200 because it doesn’t have dual feed and it will not give you adequate feeding. 😀
Long time Bernina owner, 57d hands down.
The video on the 97D foot was very helpful!
This was an exceptionally informative video. Thank you for taking the time to make them. I am new to bernina and you have been my best teacher. 😊
VERY helpful video. Thx!
Thanks!! Very informative.
Love my 97D!
Thank you very much for the information, I learn more about my Bernina 880 plus from your video channel ❤🇦🇪.

These thumbs downers are looking for a "don't be a _ick" tshirt. The internet is a democratization of opinion...whether worthy of expression or not.
Yes absolutely agree with you. There are some who are jealous n the others who are nasty n wicked.
Thanks for the explanation. Will get the D. You are my go to for Bernina videos. Keep them going.
Thank you. You explained very well, I was about to buy the #57 with guide when I really don’t need it 😊
Ohhhh! That's what I said to myself while watching this video. Thanks, Cory, for making sense of the feet and the plate combinations.
Love your videos! So clear, and love your voice! So soothing.
Excellent explanation with good visual connection, thank you! 🙏

Hi great video . Does the 97 foot work with the B720 pls ?
Yes it does! But because the 720 is the only 7 series that is a 5.5mm stitch width you can use the 57 or 37. :)
Thanks so much for your video!!
Thanks for watching. :)
Jeff, does this give you the scant 1/4”?
Hi, I was using the 97d with side guide on my 770, but it seems the fabric get scewed and I dont get a regular 1/4" seam! I use stitch no 1, should I use something else. I have taken to doing my piecing on my 380 with a perfect seam using the 57 foot.

Does the material want to pull to the left since that right side of the foot doesn't cover all the feed dogs? I seemed to have that issue.
Merci merci!

Questions ... can I use the 97 foot on a 5mm Bernina? Can I use the seam guide on a 5mm machine that has the requisite holes for mounting it? I’d like to use my 97 foot with the seam guide on my Bernina 350 that I use for traveling. (I use the 97D on my new 570)

If you didn't have the 0mm stitch plate on you can move the needle position one space in both directions. However with the 0mm stitch plate there is no movement allowed.
I can get 1 click on my 530 with the straight stitch plate for that machine. You can test yours by gently hand cranking down. I have plenty of clearance, your mileage may vary.

Is there a “C” version of the #97 or #37? I have the Artista 200 Bernina machine. Will the “D” feet work on my Artista 200?
So there is no “C” version of the 97. The 97 is just designed for the 9mm stitch width machines which you 200 is. So all you will need is the regular 97. You couldn’t use the D version on your 200 because it doesn’t have dual feed and it will not give you adequate feeding. 😀
