Clear Plastic All-Purpose Foot

This one included inside the free gift for my Bunny. You can buy this foot from Bernina supplier or online store at the range of US$12-14. (I will update if I found local supplier and RM$).

The foot also called as the satin foot or the applique foot. It is very ideal for precision embroidery, applique, cutwork and monogramming. Nothing stands in the way of our creative vision. The cut out on the underside of the foot accommodates satin stitching and the clear plastic ensures greater visibility while sewing.

The bottom of the foot has a wedge shaped indentation, which allows even satin stitching to glide under the foot without dragging. The angle in the indentation makes it possible to turn curves easily. 

The toes of the foot are shorter, compared to a regular zigzag foot, for greater maneuverability while sewing (we can turn the fabric more easily for smoother stitching lines, an important asset when embellishing fabric).

Worth to have this kind of foot because it is great for all of the following:

• Heirloom hemstitching
• Hemstitched squares, heirloom sewing

I found a video guide in using this foot for applique and decorative stitching here.

Here is a sewing instructions for applique:

1. Cut out a desired shape and fused to the right side of a cotton
2. Place stabilizer under the cotton piece
3. Select zig-zag stitch (refer your machine manual)
4. Set to medium stitch length and narrow stitch width
5. Sew around the shape's edge
6. Repeat the previous process with a closer stitch length and wider stitch width to ensure that all of the shape's raw edges is covered by stitching

Good luck on yours!
