Sewing with an Even Feed Foot
on Multiple Layers
The Even Feed Foot has its own set of feed dogs that work in conjunction
with the machine’s feeding system to improve the flow of the fabric. This
is particularly important when sewing several layers of fabric, such as in
quilting. The Even Feed Foot “pulls” the top layer or layers of fabric
through at the same speed as the machine’s feed dogs are pulling the
bottom layer or layers of fabric, providing for more even feeding!
