Well, I bought a machine with 24 presser feet, most of which I have no clue how to use, so obviously what I needed was another one! When I picked up my machine yesterday, I bought this one… at least I know how to use it!

Thanks to lots of helpful people, I’ve got the answer to my question. Of Course the answer was on the web… how could it not be? Someone from FOCD directed me to this Yahoo group-
BerninaThirtySomethings@yahoogroups.com
It is for people with older model Bernina’s. They have a list of all the feet with the old and new numbers. Now I just have to figure out how to use them.

BIG EXCITEMENT! I bought a used 930 Bernina sewing machine today from Ann’s Fabric in Canton. I don’t have it home yet- they are doing the maintenance, but I have the manual and all the attachments. So, here’s the problem- it came with 24 different presser feet. I have identified many of them, but the bunch in the picture are a mystery. I tried looking on-line (of course), but couldn’t match up any of the numbers- have they changed them in the last 20 years? So what are these for and how do I figure out how to use them?

This is what I got with the machine-
000- standard foot
007- zipper
016- embroidery
145- jeans
147- ?
152- button
158- ?
164- ?
168- ?
181- ?
285- darning
419- tailor tack
452- buttonhole
470- overlock
492- ?
508- gather (?)
513- ?
526- ?
528- ?
560- ?
also a more complicated button hole contraption
a walking foot
and a ruffler

if you can help me with any of these, please post in the comments. Thanks!
