Bernina clip on shank

[Susan W.]

Does anyone out there know anything about the Bernina clip on Shank, I have Bernina Auroa 440QE but would like to use my Janome 1/4 inch snap on foot which I Love on my Nina would this allow me to do this , I know I can get Patchwork food 57 with guide for my Bernina but I just like my Janome one, any help would be gratefully received I have been going dizzy trying to find the answer to this one on the internet. :S

Hi Sue, I found this web site maybe it will help...I don't have a Bernina but I do have a Janome 6600.
Let us know how you get on.

Thanks Anne I will go look sorry if I replied to you twice I am finding new site difficult to get around.

[ANNE E.]

You aren't the only one Sue, I think we are all trying to get our head around the new site.
It's OK if you are young and computer savvy.
What's the weather doing in Wales? It's been pouring with rain here in the south.
My parent's were Welsh...from the Rhondda Valley.
Hope you get what you are looking for
Happy sewing
Anne

Hi Sue,
The snap adapter from Bernina does not take all snap-on feet so before you invest check it with your Bernina dealer.
I use my Husqvarna/Viking feet on my Bernina using an adapter shank from Bernina (#75) and screw the Husqvarna shank on to this. Perhaps you can do something similar with the Janome.
There is a really good Bernina Yahoo group I belong to - you could try asking there for specific Janome answer.
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/430_440_630_640_730/info is the link to that.

Anne Foggy and drizzling in Ruthin YUK but what more can we expect this time of year, never mind it will soon be spring again and at least we can get lots of sewing done. I have just found the right button to reply to you I think!!!
I miss to old site but we must move with the times. Take care

Thanks for that Marianne the Bernina Yahoo group sounds good to me and will be a good way to spend some time on a wet afternoon in North Wales.

You are very welcome. Replied to your private message but could not get it to send. Nice to "meet" somebody else from Wales - it is dry but very foggy here in the south so I'm piecing. Hope you find a way to use your Janome foot.

Thank you, Marrianne, for the recommendation about the Yahoo Bernina group. I will check that out too.
