Love that you named your machine! And I love the name. Maybe we could introduce James to Nina (my baby) and see what happens!!
Happy sewing. -
There is nothing wrong in naming our machines! I love that you picked “James”…
I don’t have a 380, mine is longer – But I have stuck a metal plate on the top and I have two of those small LED white sewing lights on the top, each with it’s own flexible gooseneck. So now they look like antennae! That is why mine is called “Bugsy”, as he looks like a bug…Poor thing.,

I have this foot and now I cannot wait to give it a try! Thanks for sharing these ideas. I love the idea of actually being able to see where my needle is (at all times) while I am sewing. Nina (my machine’s name – like wpb52 I name my helpers) will really enjoy taking her foot for a spin.

I love the advice about the feet. I tend to always use the same one but forget what the others are for.

May I ask what is the difference between the 20,20c 20d?

I have a Bernina 380 (James is just over a year old now — I name my machines, and this sleek and powerful machine reminds me of James Bond in one of his action flicks.) I have purchased several feet and attachments for my 380. The most used and useful one has to be the #20 open toe foot. Love it for its versatility.
My new find among the feet has to be the #35 invisible zipper foot — I am making a bag using cotton fabrics that has a zippered closing. I usually have to take out one side of the zipper when I am installing it –not this time. The zipper coil seated nicely into the grooves of the metal foot and I think the sturdiness of the metal foot kept the zipper coil where it was supposed to be. Bring on more illustrations of the Bernina feet and their varied uses.
