Machines & tools

An open-toe presser foot offering a clear view of the needle and stitch line, used for satin stitching and detailed applique work.

A presser foot with a guide bar that runs along a folded hem edge, positioning the needle to catch only a thread or two for an invisible hem.

A small, often spring-loaded hoop-shaped presser foot used with the feed dogs dropped for free-motion stitching, darning, and thread sketching.

A spring-loaded presser foot that hovers just above the fabric, letting the quilter move the fabric freely in any direction with the feed dogs lowered.

A presser foot that gathers a single layer of fabric as it feeds, or gathers one layer while attaching it to a flat layer beneath, in one pass.

A presser foot with a guide pin or brush that stitches over a raw fabric edge to prevent fraying, mimicking a serger's edge finish on a standard machine.

A curled, funnel-shaped presser foot that folds a narrow raw fabric edge twice as it feeds, producing a tiny finished hem in a single pass.

A presser foot with a non-stick coated sole that glides smoothly over vinyl, leather, and other sticky materials without dragging or marking them.

An attachment with its own set of feed dogs that grips fabric from above in sync with the machine's lower feed dogs, preventing layers from shifting on bulky or slippery fabric.
