Even Feed Foot (Walking Foot) - Closed Toe - Janome

Closed Toe - The original version of this foot - it has a little bridge in front of the needle. If you prefer to have an open toe for more visibility click here.

Often referred to as the Walking Foot, it is incredible handy for all sorts of sewing from dressmaking to quilting.

There is a set of feed dogs built into the foot which work in conjunction with the feed dogs in the sewing machines. This even feeding of fabric stops the top layer of fabric from slipping or creeping forwards.

It useful when sewing tricky fabrics or layers.

Fabrics- Use for matching stripes and checks, sewing velvets, black out linning, leather, vinyl, oil cloth, or other difficult to handle/sew fabrics. Ideal for sewing long seams on curtains when pattern matching the design.

Quilting- A must for quilters, which is why it is sometime known as a quilting foot. It jeeps the fabric and batting from feeding through the machine unevenly. There is also a metal guide known as the quilting guide which is ideal for sewing straight parallel lines on your quilting projects.
