Standard Presser Foot
It can be used to sew lightweight to heavyweight materials.The wide needle entry opening allows this presser foot to be used for a variety of fabrics and applications, from straight stitches to zigzag stitches.Press the black button to keep the presser foot horizontal in order to smoothly begin sewing at a thick seam.
Overcasting Presser Foot (Overedge Foot)
Sew with the edges of the fabric aligned with the guide. The prong in the opening of the presser foot presses down the edge of the fabric to prevent puckering. In addition, the amount of thread going into the stitching is adjusted by the thread crossing the prong, creating a clean finish with little shrinkage. This presser foot cannot be used to sew zigzag stitches or overcasting by 5-point zigzag.
Buttonhole Presser Foot
You can sew buttonholes of the appropriate size by simply placing the button in the button holder of the presser foot.
Decorate Stitch Presser Foot (Manual BH Presser Foot/Satin Stitch Foot)
The groove along the bottom of this presser foot ensures that the presser foot does not catch on the stitching, ensuring the fabric will be smoothly fed. Use to accurately sew a buttonhole near a thick seam that is hard to reach. Also Used to Manually Create Oversize Buttonholes.
Zipper Presser Foot
Since this presser foot has a pin on the left side and on the right side for attaching it to the presser foot holder, you can attach this presser foot on either side of the needle, depending on which side of the zipper is being sewn. This presser foot can cleanly sew along the edges of the zipper without hitting the teeth.
Blind Stitch Presser Foot (Blind Hem Foot)
By sewing with the fabric fold aligned on the guide of this presser foot,only a few threads of the fabric will be uniformly caught in the stitch. Adjust the needle entry point before sewing. You can also use this presser foot as a guide when changing the needle position for hemstitching in a straight line.
Auxiliary Spool Pin (Additional Spool Pin)
Use this spool pin with a thread spool for twin needle sewing, spare machine threading or bobbin winding.
Foot Controller
Controlling the sewing machine with your foot leaves both of your hands free while sewing.
Bobbin
Since the bobbin type differs depending on your sewing machine model,be sure to use the bobbin designed for your machine.
