This is a very old thread from 2011, your post adds nothing useful to its content.

Has anyone tried the sail rite 1/4” cording foot.  It states that its compatible with the 206rb, which should make it compatible with the 226 as well.

Not if you are referring to the portable Sailrite models which are top and bottom feed only. They use totally different feet that are not compatible with compound feed walking foot machines. Do you have a link to the foot you have in mind?

I buy most of my presser feet on ebay, or from my favorite industrial sewing machine dealer.

It’s not for the portable but for there professional model.  It states its compatible with the 206rb which I assume use the same feet as the 226.  It’s a special foot as it has an opening in the back to allow for turning corners easier.

Who is your favorite supplier - I see a ton of feet mostly from China with mixed reviews.  Looking for a reliable supplier for my 226.

If that's the style of piping foot you need, you should buy it from Sailrite.

Other than Ebay sewing machine dealers, I buy machines, parts, thread and accessories from Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines.
