The Unbeatable Walking Foot!

Do you have issues with your fabric going through your machine? Sewing a silky fabric? Having problems with your layers not feeding evenly? Thick fabric catching? Denim not feeding through?

Then try an even feed/dual feed foot. This foot, sometimes called a walking foot, will help you out with all the issues above. This foot has its own set of feed dogs that work in unison with the machine's feed dogs and feed those difficult issues right through.

The walking foot is available for just about every brand of machine. And it's a handy foot even for the routine sewing tasks. If there is one foot that you plan to purchase for your machine consider the walking foot. Pictured is the Husqvarna Viking model made for number 7 machines in the Designer line. This particular model comes with its own snap on feet for all kinds of tasks.

More simple models of the walking foot are available for Singers and other models. Come in and see us and we'll set you up. Be sure to bring in your sewing machine's make and model number. Bringing along your machine's general purpose foot will allow our staff to better match up what you need for your particular model.

And this month during our annual Christmas in July sale, your foot just may be on sale! Come in and see us today. You'll be amazed how this foot makes all those pesky issues go away.

A Dual Feed Foot with Interchangeable Feet of its own!

Leave it to the Husqvarna Viking folks to come up with the foot that we've all been dreaming of---a dual feed foot with more than one foot of its own so that we can use it to stitch more than a straight stitch!

The Interchangeable Dual Feed Foot (sometimes called a Walking Foot or Even Feed Foot ) helps you out on all those projects that a typical dual feed foot helps with; feeding heavy quilts or other projects, moving knits or slippery fabrics through your machine evenly. The difference is that you can use this foot with more than just a straight stitch. Included in the package is a spare foot for zigzags and available separately is a Changeable Decorative Foot that has a flange that keeps decorative stitches straight down seams and is perfect when you're stitching in the ditch on those quilted projects.


This is one of those feet that every sewing toolbox requires. Come in and see us today. Available for machine #5, 6, and 7.

Notion of the Week

There are times when even the most experienced sewers need help. And since today's 12th day of Christmas gift is buy two get one free on sewing machine feet, I thought it would be timely to give you the scoop on a sewing machine foot that can help you out.

This is the walking foot. This foot will keep those quarter inch seams straight and well fed through your machine for perfect stitching all the time. It can also help with quilting, feeding those difficult, slippery fabrics that need some extra help, or when you have thicker items that could use an extra boot through the machine.

During a recent quilting class the instructor noted that one of the students was having difficulties with those seams going through on the straight and narrow. She recommended the walking foot for the student's machine.

Sure enough, the seams were PERFECT and trouble free too. So hurry in and get your walking foot today and take advantage of the buy two get one free deal on all feet!
