Variety of Presser Feet and Their Uses
1 General purpose foot A:
The general purpose foot will be used for the majority of
your sewing needs. The foot is designed to achieve good
stitch quality when straight stitching.
2 Overedge foot C:
This foot is exclusively for overedging. The brush on the
foot effectively prevents skipped stitches on the raw edge
of fabrics. The brush also keeps lint build up off the needle
when working with fabrics that have a nap or pile.
3 Narrow hemmer foot D:
This special foot is for sewing a narrow hem. The curl of the
foot helps to form a hem at a constant width.
4 Zipper foot E:
This foot is for sewing zippers and also for creating and
inserting piping.
5 Satin stitch foot F:
This clear plastic foot is ideal for satin stitching and
decorative stitch patterns. The center groove on the bottom
of the foot ensures smooth feeding of dense stitches.
6 Open toe foot F-2:
The open toe satin stitch foot for decorative stitching and
appliqué.
7 Blind hem foot G:
This foot is specially designed for blind hemming. The guide
on the foot helps feed the fabric and sew a straight and
nearly invisible blind-hem.
8 Cording foot:
This foot is specially designed to hold one or three strands
of cording to create braiding.
9 Overcasting foot M:
This foot is specially designed to simulate professional style
overlocking. The wires on the foot effectively prevent the
fabric edge from puckering or rolling.
10 Quarter inch foot with guide O:
This foot is useful for patchwork piecing. The guide on
the foot helps to maintain an exact 1/4” (0.7 cm) seam
allowance.
11 Button sewing foot T:
This foot is exclusively used for attaching a button. The
grips on the foot hold the button securely in place while
stitching.
12 Darning/Embroidery foot P-2:
This foot can be used with the basting stitch #07 in Mode 1.
This foot can also be used for free-motion embroidery or
stipple quilting.
13 Automatic buttonhole foot R:
This foot is for buttonholes and for darning. Place a button in
the button holder on the rear of the foot. This automatically
sets the buttonhole size. The buttonhole foot holds fabrics
securely when sewing darning stitches.
14 Even feed / Walking foot:
This is a special attachment for fabrics that tend to shift
when sewing. This foot helps prevent two fabrics from
shifting and puckering when stitching. Use this foot for
quilting multiple layers and matching plaids.
