Janome 1600P-QC: which foot do I need?

A hemmer foot curls the raw fabric edge over twice as it feeds, so you get a tiny finished hem in one pass. It suits lightweight fabrics such as chiffon, cotton lawn and napkin edges. Start the curl by hand for the first couple of stitches, then let the foot's scroll do the folding.

A ditch quilting foot has a center guide blade that rides in the seam line, so your stitching stays hidden in the 'ditch' between pieced patches. It is used to anchor quilt layers and to topstitch binding without wandering onto the fabric face.
