🧵Community Check-In: What’s Your Go-To Presser Foot?
We all have that one trusty foot that stays parked on the machine 90% of the time—the ride-or-die attachment that feeds perfectly, turns corners like a dream, and never lets a stitch slip. Maybe it’s the everyday zigzag that’s seen more seams than a tailor in prom season, or the walking foot that powers through waffle knits without breaking a sweat. Whatever your favorite, we want to know!
Question: When you sit down to sew, which presser foot do you reach for first—and why does it win your heart?
All-Purpose/Zigzag Foot – the faithful daily driver
Zipper Foot – because zips (and piping) deserve precision
Walking/Even-Feed Foot – quilting, knits, and tricky layers, oh my!
¼-Inch Piecing Foot – patchwork perfection seekers unite
Blind-Hem Foot – stealthy hems are the real flex
Overcasting/Overlock Foot – faux-serger finish for the fray-averse
Free-Motion/Darning Foot – doodle-stitchers and quilters at play
Non-Stick/Teflon Foot – vinyl, leather, and laminated rebels
Buttonhole Foot – because every shirt needs a secure closure
