I'm in the process of buying a Babylock Coverstitch machine. Current model.
Can anyone tell me if a binding foot comes with it? On my current coverstitch machine I change to a shorter clear foot when using the binder.
I have generic binders that I can use but want to order the foot from the eBay guy if it does't come included in the accessories. Do the generic binders just fit with tape and blue tac just as I have been doing?
Also, I'll be ordering some ELx 705 needles for it. Can you tell me which size needles perform best? With my present coverstitch machine I use either a 80 or 90 depending on the weight of the faric. I haven't used the variety of needles that I use on the sewing machine, I suppose mainly because the present is pretty finicky.
Thanks
Sue

Mine did not come with any extra feet or attachments. It just had the standard foot with it. I bought separately the clear foot and some binders. Ebay is a great source for buying attachments.

Thanks for the reply.
Do you use the binders much?
I'm also wondering if my clip on 1000CP coverstitch binder clear foot is interchangeable with the babylock. I would hate to get another foot and it be the same.
I shoud ask the eBay guy I suppose.

I dont use my binders much but really depends on what you sew. I dont know about your janome foot fitting the babylock. The clear foot on ebay is about $20-25 not that much, in fact I think the dealers sell them for about the same price. The binders are a lot cheaper on ebay though.
