Feet

posted by simplesewer on Nov 17, 2007


My sewing machine is probably 25 years old and I have lost the manual. Can you please tell what the different "feet" are used for? I have to sew a dance costume consisting of net underneath satin. Which foot would I use?Thanks.

If you are sewing straight stitch use the straight stitch foot for that fabric, less chance of puckering otherwise use the general purpose foot and make sure you use an anti-static needle.
