The Even Feed Foot (also known as a Walking Foot) has its
own set of feed dogs that work in conjunction with the ma-
chine’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 lay-
ers of fabric through at the same speed as the machine’s feed
dogs are pulling the bottom layer or layers of fabric- - -
making for more even feeding!
