ing. etc.

stitching to feed freely while the toe holds

Presser Feet for Special Sewing Needs
Zipper foot is used to place stitching close to
a raised edge. Thus, it is useful for corded
seams (page 48) as well as zipper insertion
(page 47). It can be fitted to the presser foot
shank for use on either the right or left side of
the needle.
Sutton foot holds any two-hole or four-hole
button securely for stitching. The groove in
the foot can be used to hold a needle, over
which a thread shank can be formed.
Buttonhole foot. This snap-on transparent
foot is used to make two-step, round-end but­
tonholes in fabrics of light to medium weight.
The guidelines on the sole plate simplify but­
tonhole placement and make it easy to gauge
buttonhole length.
Overedge foot, used with the overedge
stretch pattern (see page 54) enables you to
produce flexible overedge seams and edge
finishes. It is particularly useful in construc­
tion of garments made of knit, stretch, and
elastic fabric.
Even Feed foot improves the feeding of
fabrics that tend to stick, stretch, or slip while
being sewn. The foot feeds top and bottom
fabric layers together so that seams start
even, feed evenly, and end even.
