Making Piping
Piping adds a beautiful finish to projects such as pillows, sleeve edges, collars
and more. The design of the Zipper Foot allows for the needle to stitch very
closely to the edge of the foot. This is important when inserting zippers,
applying piping or when topstitching close to the fabric’s edge. Only the
Straight Stitch can be used when sewing with the Zipper Foot.
