couching presser foot has a slot that runs from the front to the back so that you can place yarn or a thick thread in it and then sew it down as you go. Braiding is basically the same except the slot is wider to accept braid. You can go to Bernina site and "see" them.

Good job, Jerrilyn. Not only can you see the feet, if you click on each foot, you can see a vidio using each foot. This is very helpful even if you don't own a Bernina.

You got your answer - I have finally tried it, and had fun learning to use it.

Hello Françoise, Husqvarna calls it the small and wide soutache foot, and soutache is French isn't it. Hope that helps as well.
